Well there never has been a Master License.
Netbackup Server is a Product for those who don't need or want another
mediaserver.
Netbackup is focused on the Large Enterprise. Hence Symantec pushs the
"Enterprise Server".

You can do a lot now with just one server. 6-12 cores on a tier 1,2 server.

You can buy "Server" in starter packs. 5, 20 and 40 clients included (some
MS agents are packadged in the 20 and 40 client)

The Standard Client now comes with bmr and softwareclient  encryption free.

Simon,

I don't think the term "media server" really exists any more, at least  
as far as licensing is concerned. I think you just need a "Netbackup  
Enterprise Server" license for whatever platform. I don't think  
there's any difference in cost/licensing between a master server and a  
media server.

What used to be called a "SAN Media Server" is now an "Enterprise  
Client". There's also "SAN Client", which is a client which pushes  
it's data to a media server over FC using the Fibre Transport.

What Justin says seems right.

Cheers,
Dean
