You may need to add it to the pools if your modus operandi is to
allocate drives to pools.
You need a licence for the storage node. Although in theory you can
recover data from NetWorker from an unlicenced server, you are not able
to control storage nodes or jukeboxes without licences. You cannot just
add a storage node and designate it as recover only, there is no
provision in NetWorker for you to do this.
If you don't want to backup to the devices on this storage node, simply
mark them as read-only.
