We just received a new 7.5 SP1 media kit. It's interesting that the
included hard copy document has 45-day temp codes for "Linux Network
Edition", "Storage Node for Linux Network Edition", "NetWorker
DiskBackup Option, all tiers"
but ...
no "Client Connections" for Linux? Only:
"100 NetWorker Client Connections for Windows and UNIX" and
"25 Cluster Client Connections for Linux"
Also, no "Autochanger Software Module" for Linux, only:
"NetWorker Autochanger Module 1-9 Slots for Windows and UNIX" and
"NetWorker Autochanger Software Module Unlimited Slots for Windows
and UNIX".
Any ideas why?
The platforms in the licenses aren't all that accurate in some
instances. For plain client connections and jukeboxes for instance,
there is no concern as to what platform you install it on - they'll
work on Linux, Windows, Unix all equally.
Where there are still differences are in some of the module licenses
and the server/storage node licenses. Given that cluster client
connections are no longer required, whether or not the cluster client
connections _are_ specific to a particular platform will be largely
irrelevant.
Cheers,
Preston.
