What I've found out so far, in the case of the Oracle module, is that you
need a module for every client that you are performing RMAN backups to
NetWorker resources. If your RMAN backup stores it on disk, and then you
just back those files up with a normal filesystem backup, a NMO license is
not required.

Ouch, sounds creepy.
Is there a way to check this before doing the upgrade to 7?
I had some communication with legato and this list, and I couldn't get a
straight answer about some licensing issues... But is worked, so I was
satisfied... So before I upgrade to 7 I would like to find out if we have
enough licenses....
