@Hans:
According to IBM NL you need to have PVU licenses for all hardware that is
been hit by TSM, not only for the nodes where the software is installed.
You also need to have TSM EE licenses for servers where you backup i.e. a
file-share without a baclient on that server.

If you backup a NAS, check the number and kind of the CPU cores in the NAS.
You need to have the PVU licenses for these cores too.
