By default, the Web Server is installed as part of the CommServe installation when IIS is enabled on the computer.
If you did not install the Web Server during the CommServe installation, or if you want to install additional Web Servers on other computers, you can do so by using the installation package that was created from the Download Manager application.
Before You Begin
Prepare your environment by reviewing the following tasks:
-
Verify that the installation package that was created from the Download Manager includes the Web Server software. If missing, create a new installation package and include the software. For instructions, see Downloading Software for Windows Computers Using the Download Manager.
-
Review Commvault requirements and gather the information that you must provide during the installation. For more information, see Preinstallation Checklist for the Web Server.
-
If you plan to install the Web Server database on an existing Microsoft SQL Server instance, see Configuring an Existing SQL Instance for Server Packages.
Procedure
Based on your computer's operating system, perform a local installation of the Web Server on a computer using one of the following procedures:
-
For Windows computers, see Installing Commvault Locally on Windows Computers Using the Installation Package
-
For Linux computers, see Installing Commvault Locally on UNIX, Linux, and Macintosh Computers Using the Installation Package
What to Do Next
-
Review the post installation tasks that you might have to perform to complete the installation:
-
Add Commvault to the Windows Firewall Exclusion List
If you did not add the Commvault programs and services to the Windows Firewall exclusion list during the installation, you can add them later by using a batch file. For more information, see Configuring Windows Firewall to Allow CommCell Communication.
-
Complete Firewall and Network Configurations
If you configured firewall and network settings during the installation, you must complete additional firewall and network configurations from the CommCell Console. For more information, see Configuring Network Routes.
If a firewall is placed between the Web Server and the Web Console or CommServe computer, see Firewall Configurations for the Web Server.

-
If you installed a Web Server for Compliance Search, we recommend that you schedule regular backups of the DM2 database on the Web Server. For more information, see Backing Up the Web Server Database.
-
If there is an HTTP proxy configured on the Web Server computer, you must add 127.0.0.1 to the HTTP proxy exclusion list.
