Re: [Veritas-bu] Cost of VTL vs DSU
So, the way I read this is that since you're going to want the advanced stuff (as it's really cool), there is no longer ANY licensing pricing advantage of DSUs over VTLs. When you add de-dupe to this, a VTL is far cheaper now if it offers de-dupe, even when you consider Symantec licensing. --- W.

Your sales rep is saying the right thing (pay per TB) and the other sales rep is off base (pay per drive). I'm also saying don't shoot the messenger, but any sales rep who is saying that a 6.x drive-based license is valid for a VTL obviously hasn't read the licensing guide.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Cost of VTL vs DSU
Symantec changed the rules. VLT's are capacity based only. Part of their "original" reasoning was it was getting too expensive since people wanted far more expansion licenses. You may fall under Grandfather rules however. Don't flame me. Licensing this stuff is hard enough. Agreed Netbackup can't tell the difference. Generally Symantec doesn't care, as long as your trying to keep things licensed. Per 6.5 pricing guide NetBackup Library Based Tape Drive NetBackup support for physical tape drives controlled by a robotic library is licensed per physical tape drive; regardless of the manufacturer, type of device, or number of servers attached to the library. There is no charge for stand-alone, nonrobotic tape drives directly attached to a NetBackup Master/Media Server or NetBackup Server. This is not applicable to licensing virtual tape libraries (VTLs). Please see the Virtual Tape Library Option for that type of functionality. Product Description License per MSRP NetBackup Library Based Tape Drive Per Robotic Controlled Tape Drive $3,000 NetBackup Virtual Tape Option NetBackup Virtual Tape Option enables support for 3rd party virtual tape offerings and is licensed per terabyte of virtual capacity. Note that in the move to virtual capacity is a change from 6.0 where the Virtual Tape Option was licensed based on "usable capacity". With virtual capacity customers only need to license the amount of capacity they would like to use, not the maximum capacity their VTL device may hold. For example, if a customer's VTL can hold a maximum of 100TB but the customer will only be using 50TB this year, they may choose to only license 50TB of virtual capacity. If they later use more than 50TB they must purchase additional licenses. . NetBackup support for 3rd party virtual tape offerings . Supports unlimited number of virtual tape drives . Includes sharing of virtual tape drives; no SSO license required Product Description License per MSRP NetBackup Virtual Tape Option 1 TB of virtual capacity $995 NetBackup Virtual Tape Option for MAID Devices 1 TB of virtual capacity $495 Jim -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kevin Whittaker Sent: Monday, September 10, 2007 12:18 PM To: VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Cost of VTL vs DSU I have asked my account rep multiple times and been explained that I do not have to license my VTL (EMC CDL720).
