- Backup Exec Library Expansion Option

Use when you have a tape library with more than 1 tape drive.
(For each extra tape drive you need a Library Expansion Option)

- Backup Exec SAN Shared Storage Option

Use when you 'share' one fibre channel library between multiple Backup Exec media servers.

- Backup Exec Advanced Disk-based Backup Option

You will need the following licences for your list of servers

S/No	Licences	no. of copies
1	RAWS	2
2	Exchange	2
3	Exchange	2
4	Exchange	2

In addition, if you need to restore individual AD objects, then you should buy a ADRA licence for your DC.

You need a LEO for each tape drive that you have in a tape library.  For example, you have 2 tape libraries with 2 tape drives each, meaning you have 4 tape drives in total, then you need 4 LEO licences.  However, the base BE licence includes 1 LEO licence, so you need to buy 3 additional LEO licences.  An easy way to count the number of additional LEO licences that you need is to count the number of tape drives in all your tape libraries and substract 1.

Dear PkH

Please Correct me if i'm mistake

AD  Qty.1

Echange Qty. 2

RAWAS QTY. 5

yes, you only need to backup the AD state from one server.
And the AD agent & Exchange agent includes a remote agent.

For the CAS/HUB/EDGE a normal remote agent is required, so your total list is fine.

so i need one agent for AD and one Agent for exchange or two agent for echange
