About Backup Exec 2014 licenses

Hi,

Just received an email about BE2014 upgrade is available.

I got 4 licenses. But what is the difference ??

Otherwise, as I know the license no. not match the server I am managing. Those license may be for other servers managing by other colleagues.

How do I check it ?

Thanks

  • The Agent for Applications & Databases is for servers running applications such as SQL, Exchange, Lotus, Sharepoint, AD, Oracle and the Backup Exec 2014 Server license is for the core product itself.

    The first and third seems to be actual product licenses, whereas the remaining two looks like maintenance licenses. Maintenance licenses/serial numbers provides technical support assistance and ability to upgrade to the next version (without a charge if the maintenance period is active)

    Best to confirm with the Licensing team though - http://www.symantec.com/support/assistance_care.jsp
