Out of the Licensing Guide

"NetBackup Shared Storage Option is licensed per shared tape drive,
regardless of the manufacturer, type of device, or number of NetBackup
Servers attached to the SAN. The NetBackup Shared Storage Option license is
in addition to any required NetBackup Library Based Tape Drive licenses."

If you have 4 tape drives you need "at the most" 4 SSO license.
# tape drives does not need to match # of SSO's

Corrected as per Kate's message:

4 drives and 8 servers, = 4 *shared* drive licenses and 8 SSO media
server licenses.
