I have one Veritas BackupExec 9.1 backup server and 3 tape libraries.
1. library: SCSI, one drive
2. library: SCSI, one drive
3. library: FC, two drives

Which additional licenses I need to use all drives? And how many?

Hello,

Please note one LEO license comes with the Backup Exec so you can use that for one drive and you will have to purchase an additional LEO license for each additional drive.

Here as you are using 1. library: SCSI, one drive
2. library: SCSI, one drive
and 3. library: FC, two drives
so you will have to purchase one more additional LEO license for the second drive in the Library 3.

Just out of curiosity, are they all connected yet?

What does BackupExec see?

Thank you for answering.
I suppose I also need one SSO license to use the FC library?

Currently only SCSI tape libraries are connected, each on a separate SCSI channel of a dedicated SCSI controller.
We are still making our decision on a new FC library.
