UPDATE:
=20
I have been getting mails from folks saying, the  media server should =
be
licensed properly.
=20
My Answer is : Yes , you have to have the  proper License to install  a
Media server. I don't think the installation will go forward with out
punching in the proper license keys. My point is, the issue I described =
was
not related to licensing, as I installed proper license keys when I
installed this media server. For this issue, even if I buy 1000 =
separate
licenses, it's not going to work unless I have the same patch level on =
both
the master and media server.=20
=20
Hope this clarifies the confusion.

SUMMARY:
=20
Thanks for all who responded. The fix for the problem is to keep the =
patch
level same on Master server and all media servers.  No need for any
additional licenses.   Many thanks to Fabrice.........!

Thanks,
Shyam.

NetBackup patches : NB_34_1 or _2
=20
Be careful to this !

And Sun patches but this is not the same problem.

        Hi Shyam,=20

Are you sure that your media and master are at same patch level ??=20

I try this configuration for internal use today, and if your servers =
are not
at same level then you have this kind of troubles.

Hello Group,=20

Do I need to buy any additional license for adding a media server to my =

network ?=20

This is what I am trying to do:=20
I have an L700 with 16 drives in it. 8 drives and Library are connected =
to=20
the master server and I am trying to connect the rest of the drives =
into  4=20
different servers  (2 drives on each server) and configure those =
machines as

Media servers.=20
After I did the configuration for drives  on the media server and =
storage=20
unit on the master server. I got error codes 219 and 213 when I tried =
to do=20
a test backup. SUN customer support says this is a Licensing issue as =
each=20
media server needs separate Licenses.=20

I am sure many of you must be using the same kinda configuration at =
your=20
site . What do you guy's say ?=20

Thanks in Advance.=20
