You would need the following licenses
 
1 Master Server
8 Media Servers if you backup network clients (or 8 SAN Media Servers
theses servers only backup themselfes or a mixture of both)
16 Library based Tape drives
16 SSO (Shared Storage Option) Licenses for sharing the drives between
the media servers (SSO is licensed on base of the number of drives you
share not the nodes that use them)
one protect Server License for each network client
 
additional licenses for Databases (Exchange, SQL, Oracle....)
 
Please contact a sales rep from Symantec to give you info about tiering
models (Number of Processors/Server Model)
 
Regards
 
Martin

Betreff: [Veritas-bu] NBU 6.0 Implementation - What Licenses Do I need?


We've currently the following Legato Networker Configuration:



*       1 Main Server mid-range - hooked up to 2 Libraries with 8 Drives
each 
*       8 Mid-to-Large Servers that are Storage Nodes and Licensed for
DDS (Dynamic Drive Sharing) 
*       These 8 Storage Nodes can claim any drives from the 2 Libraries
so backups are local (We have a SAN) 
*       The environment has hundreds of pure Networker CLients, simply
backed up over the network 
        
*       These networker clients are backed up using the Main server  or
divied up accross the 8 "storage nodes"

So in NBU 6.0 scenario, what kind of licenses will I need?  I will
obviously will need one Master Server that can also be the Media Server
right? And I believe, unless I need to back up my pure network backup
clients thorugh my "storage nodes", I will only require those "storage
nodes" to have SSO license? But if I want to back up my clients to these
SSO nodes, then I will need to make those nodes a Media Server?  Is this
correct? 

So what essentially do I need as far as Licenses?

Thanks and would appreciate any input.
