I thought I knew this, but I guess I need to double check.
I have 115 licenses, but 128 clients defined.
nsrlic:
STANDARD CLIENT LICENSES
Available: 115
Used: 115
>From bootstrap backup:
NetWorker savegroup: (notice) Bootstrap completed, Total 128 client(s),
128 Succeeded.
Now, those other 13 clients are just not in any scheduled backup jobs,
just the Bootstrap group, because I don't have enough client licenses for
them. (hopefully I will be able to buy more licenses next month, when the
new budget goes into effect. I just wanted to define the clients now, so I
know how many more licenses I need to buy)
I have 2 or 3 clients that are on currently scheduled backup jobs, that I
don't need to back up anymore. So I was going to keep note of their client
ID (in case I ever need to recreate those clients in future), and then
delete those 3 clients from NMC. I was then going to change 3 of those
other 13 clients to include them in a scheduled backup job. Am I right in
assuming that as soon as I delete those 3 current client definitions that
I don't need, 3 licenses free up, to be assigned to whichever next 3
clients who ask for them? i.e., I only need to run a test job with the 3
clients I want to have licenses, and NW will assign the 3 freed up
licenses to this set of clients?
I ask, because I seem to remember trying to do things this way, and it not
working the way I thought it would ..
Am I correct in my assumptions?
