Not only that, but even if one wasn't required to license the ba client if
using only the db agent, the next question is, are you *sure* you don't want
to back up any flat files on the box?  Don't forget that a database is more
than the sum of it's data.  There's usually flat file information that
relates back to db configuration, etc.  Frankly, I don't think it's wise to
backup a db without backing up the rest of the system, anyways...

Paul

Hi Joe,

I am an IBM Business Partner and we resell Tivoli software.  In order to
be in compliance you will need to buy both B/A client and Tivoli for
Mail licenses for that node.  Remember you need to buy one for each
processor as well.  The reason for this is that the "Tivoli for *"
products use the client API and that is licensed under the B/A client.
Sorry, but that is the way the licensing is set up.

If you have any further question you may contact me directly and I will
be glad to help you out.

Hello,

If I have an Exchange server, and I'm backing up only exchange database,
no file backup; do I need TDP license plus server license, or just TDP
license.
