Incorrect. The question was about SAN-sharing of disk not tape. "Managed
Library" is for *tape* libraries having more than certain ammount of
drives and media slots. For disk sharing Tivoli SANergy license is needed
and "Managed Library" *is not* required (regardless of number of hard disk
drives).

Hi,
You are Wright but no for everything.
If you have a library with more than 2 drive you must also buy license
for library.


Best regards,

My understanding was that SANergy was part of Tivoli for SAN, and comes
with a client that is installed on each SAN client.
If you do not have library sharing, then you should not have to
purchase a shared library license. However, if you have 4 or more
drives, you are required to have the 5.1 extended edition.

Hi All,

     I am having problems getting answers to exactly what licensing is
required for the TSM Server in order to do LANfree backups of data in
an
HDS 9960.  So far, I have the Managed System for SAN client licenses
that
are needed, but is there also a TSM Server license needed?  Does the
"Shared Library" license need to be purchased?  If so, do we need one
for
each SAN client?

Thanks,
