Hi Andrew,

The way it was explained to me was that the base product gives you the ability 
to define a PRIMARY storage pool on another ADSM server but that is all. So you 
cannot do DB backups to the remote server nor have a COPY storage pool on a 
remote server. For either of those you have to purchase DRM.
