Yes.  At least 1 BE server license is always required and other license/options may depend upon your environment.

If your environment has ONLY a NAS box and a Windows server, then you are right in terms of licenses required.

If the NAS is capable of NDMP, then for a NDMP-style backup, the NDMP option is required.

Else, if not, then you can backup the shares on the NAS using CIFS and this requires a remote agent license.

You can also refer to the Backup Exec 2014 licensing guide for more information:

so as i understand if NAS box has NDMP need to provide 1 NDMP Option + 1 BE base Server License.

and if NAS box does not have NDMP 1 BE Base server + 1 Agent for Windows.

so that i can backup them on to dedicated server.

 

please rectify

 

Thanks
