The licensing guide states the following for the NetBackup Data Protection Optimization Option:
Enterprise Disk Option Considerations
For customers using standard licensing model, NetBackup Data Protection Optimization Option includes many features that are normally available through Enterprise Disk Option. Specifically, customers can make use of NetBackup Storage Life Cycle Policies, NetBackup Media Server Load Balancing, NetBackup OpenStorage connectivity and NetBackup Cloud-store connectivity.
So if you want to utilse a Dedupe or non-Dedupe VTL you need the Enterprise Disk license.
If you want to utilse the Accelerator functionality you need the netbackup data protection optimisation option instead of the Enterprise Disk license.
The guide also state for AIR requiremens:
The Automatic Image Replication feature is a part of the Storage Lifecycle Policies feature and requires the Enterprise Disk license and, where appropriate, the Data Protection Optimization option license, for both the source and target domains.
So to utilise AIR you need either the Enterprise Disk License or the Data Protection Optimisation license.
