Hello, we are about to buy Backup Exec V-Ray Edition On-Premise (corporate) with 24 month support.
Knowing it is a first time installation, which reference shall we order : 17736-M2971 or 17736-M0020 ?
Best regards,
Benoît.

Hi Marianne, thanks for your answer.
Do you confirm SKU 17736-M2971 would install without any problem on a new server ?
Correct. We sell this license on a regular basis for new installations.
The word 'upgrade' is actually incorrect. It is just a lower price because we're competing with other products (e.g. Veeam).

17736-M2971 is 'Competitive Upgrade' SKU and slightly cheaper than 17736-M0020.
They enable the exact same features.
Best to discuss licensing option with a knowledgeable Veritas Partner.

Hi Marianne, thanks for your answer.
I tried to contact Veritas France yesterday, but with no success.
Our Veritas reseller in France is proposing us the 'Competitive Upgrade' (ref. 17736-M2971) : from the word 'Upgrade' I was afraid it would require some kind of previous licence for Backup Exec to allow installation.
