I have a question about DDS licensing.  We are getting ready to upgrade
our Library with extra drives so that we can start cloning. 

 

Currently we have a DDS license for each drive in the machine, but
that's not necessary for the drives that we are going to use for
cloning. 

 

Is there going to be in issue if we want to have our Storage Nodes use
just 8 of 12 drives (we have 4 storage nodes and 8 DDS licenses for 8
drives)?   Does it have to be all drives in a library? 

 

Just curious if I'm going to run into any issues - I'd hate to buy
licenses, as we don't need them for all 12 drives.
