Lyve Cloud with Commvault

Commvault is validated for use with Lyve Cloud Object Storage.

Prerequisites

The configuration for Lyve Cloud with the Commvault is as follows:

Set up a Lyve Cloud service account and create the bucket that Commvault will use within Lyve Cloud. Ensure you have the access and secret keys for the account, which must have full permissions (read, list, write, and delete) for the designated bucket. While it is recommended to create a dedicated user for Commvault, this step is optional.
