Thanks for the information. We are currently backing up 4 VMs. I would like to add at least 5 more VMs.
How? Have you added individual VMs to Backup Exec Console, or you backup all these Vms from under a ESX /Vcentre host that you have added to BE.
So far the backups appear to be working just fine. My concern is that if I keep on adding servers to the host I might not be able to back them up.
If you are backing up all the VMs thorough the Host and not as invidual VMs there is no limit in the number of VMs you can add to backup. (you just need 1 VMware license per host)
However if you are baking them up as individual VMs, each VM will need a seperate remote agent license
We just converted 3 physical servers to virtual servers. We used to backup these servers but now we can't since they became VMs. These 2 servers have BE 10d. I would like to remove BE 10d from these servers and back them up using BE 2012. The question is, do I need licenses for these servers in order for me to be able to add them to BE 2012 in order for me to be able to back them up?
Lets say your host name is ABC and VM name is XYZ and DEF
if you are backing up XYZ and DEF as individual servers you need 1 remote agent license each
IF you are adding ABC and edit ABCs selection and backing up XYZ and DEF from there you need one VMware agent license.
