Hello
I just want to know if we buy a backup exec library license and our library has only one drive do we have to buy a drive license separately ?
and if we have two drive then what will be licensing for drive and library ?
Thanks

Hi
I understood that if I have a robotic library with one tape drive then I dont need library expansion option but er if I have two tape drives in my library than I need one library expansion option.
Is there any robotic library license at first time apart from expansion option of drive license
And after some time if I bought another library with two drives then I have to buy only two expansion option licenses for two drive correct ? and not any second robotic libary license
Thanks

Hi,
No...the media server license covers the first drive in a tape library or autoloader...nothing to buy unless you expand the # of drives in that library/autoloader.
If you bought another library with 2 drives, you'd need 1 LEO as the first drive should be covered by the media server...
You can always confirm this by contacting the licensing department.
Thanks!
