You should be able to get a copy of the Tier sheet from your Veritas rep.
There are different Tiers for UNIX, Windows/Linux, and NDMP servers. As far
as I know the Tier sheet hasn't been updated since 10/12/04.
I always prefer just giving them the model of the server I'm putting the
license on and making them figure out at time of purchase what Tier it is.
=)
SSO, Protect Workstation/Server, and Library-Based Tape drive licenses don't
have Tiers attached, I'm pretty sure the rest of them will.

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Tier_1 vs Tier_2
I have the same at our installation.
We are a Windows only shop, and the info I got on this was something like:
Tier 1 - 1 cpu server
Tier 2 - 2 cpu server
Tier 3 - 4 cpu server
Tier 4 - 8 cpu server
But since we have never had anything but 2 and 4 cpu servers for the last 4
years (we moved to NBU 4 years ago) I think that we got all the Tier 1
licenses for our servers to make the offer we got for NBU fit into the
budget I had.
But the info I have received on this subject has changed as many times as I
have asked. Both when I ask the company we got the licenses from (in our
case StorageTek) and directly to our accountmanager at Veritas.
Basicly I just play with "open cards" to both StorageTek and Veritas and
what I do with the licenses and since none of them have complained I don't
care.
It's a little like with licenses from Microsoft. It's difficult to live up
to the licenspolicies if the vendor can't explain you what their
licenspolicy is.

I also have some licenses that do not have a Tier defined. Which tier would
they be?
What is the difference between Tier_1 and Tier_2 for VERITAS NetBackup
And..
Yes I am trying to contact my VERITAS sale representative but I thought this
community would be faster.
