Hi,

http://www.backupcentral.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?=&p=160627

2 - On each media you need a SSO license and SAN Media license.
3 - You can connect only the tapes, and the arm control stay with the
master, but particularly I preffer connect the robot and tapes, is more easy
to configure using the wizard if you has many tapes.

If I recall, SSO is only to share drives, not the robot.

Justin.

The first server, server1, works ok, but the second one doesn?t. We can install on the second one the robot as a controlled robot by the first server (the inventory works fine), but when we get to drives it doesn?t install anything and the message is ?no shared storage option installed?. We have the shared storage option installed, but on both servers appears as ?Feature: share storage option (inactive)? and ?valid: no?. The questions are: 1. did anybody experience similar problem with the license or maybe it is a configuration issue? 2. is there any other way to use the two servers independently of one another?
