Installing a trial version of V-Ray

I have downloaded the Backup Exec 2012 "all editions" ISO - BEx64-DVD-1798.17a.HF1c.SP1a (this is what gets downloaded when you follow the V-Ray trial edition link). When I try to install V-Ray, I only get the following options: * Backup Exec 2012 * Agent for Application and Databases * (Maintenance) Agent for Applications and Databases * (Maintenance) Backup Exec 2012 There is no V-Ray option and I haven't been sent a serial number by e-mail. Can anyone help?

    Marco: since this is in trial mode, completely uninstall BE 2012. Once done, use the ISO you've just downloaded to reinstall BE 2012 and load SP2. Then try again...

    Thanks!

    Unfortunately, there is no agent for VMware/Hyper-V, only the options I mentioned in my last post. Thanks

    V-Ray option is just a name

    it includes

    1 vmware and hyper v license

    1 application and database license

    1 deduplication license

     

    You dont have a serial number for Vray or a differnt setup ISO  for VRay

    All the optinos togather makes a VRAY edition

    as per you post above and in addition to craig and kunal

    * (Maintenance) Agent for Applications and Databases
    * (Maintenance) Backup Exec 2012

    Please contact our licensing team to get the other required license if entitled to.

    If you forget something, edit your earlier post and add it in.  Don't use multiple posts.

    The other option is to download the BE trial from www.backupexec.com.  Click on the trialware section.  You will get the AVVI and Hyper-V agent.  You can then apply your serial numbers when you receive them later.

    Ok, can someone please confirm if the Backup Exec 2012 "all editions" ISO - BEx64-DVD-1798.17a.HF1c.SP1a I have downloaded is the correct file? As I said in my original post, this is what gets downloaded when you follow the V-Ray trial edition link. I understand the licencing but again, as I said, when I try to install V-Ray, I only get the following options: * Backup Exec 2012 * Agent for Application and Databases * (Maintenance) Agent for Applications and Databases * (Maintenance) Backup Exec 2012 There is no V-Ray option and I haven't been sent a serial number by e-mail.

    Yes the iso looks correct, just that after installing live update to Sp2

    Can you clarify what do you mean when you say "when I try to install V-Ray"

     

    Edit :

    I am assuming you have not received all the serial numbers relevent to Vray

    Please contact Symantec Licensing and get this sorted

    I don't get the option to install the agent for VMware/Hyper-V. I only get the options I mentioned in my previous posts.
