As I understand it the SAN Media Server license is only to allow a
server on the SAN to backup and restore itself.   An SSO license allows
a media server to backup and restore other servers.   We use SSO for the
purpose you indicate here with no problems.

Hi Bob

=20

I don't think there's a way of knowing for sure without trying!

=20

PLEASE try and let the list know - my gut-feel says it should work as
long as all the necessary SERVER entries are in place. Just make sure
you have all the necessary logs in place before you start:

bprd on the master, bpbrm on the media server, bpcd on the client.

=20

GOOD LUCK and please let us know!

        can a licensed SAN media server be used to restore data to a
client other than itself?
