EV FSA Licensing

[ia01]

Hi,

We have a license for FSA where it says

SYMC ENTERPRISE VAULT FILE SYSTEM

ARCHIVING - ARCHIVING & SEARCH 10.0 WIN

PER USER INITIAL ESSENTIAL 12 MONTHS

REWARDS BAND E

Quantity: 7000

What does this quantity 7000 means?

Many Thanks

7000 means that your have the right to archive files for up to 7000 users.

I believe that would mean 7 TB of data.  But you should contact customer care for clarification.

From the licensing guide:

File System Archiving, Archiving and Search

Per User

A User is someone who creates or has access to files under management by EV. A User is defined as an Active Directory account

The license details says PER USER, so most porbably 7000 users access to archives and not based on TB. Just need clarification.

[ia01]

So that means the license is not based on TB FSA target data. That means we can archive as much data as we want?

[ZeRoC00L]

Correct.

Well, I stand corrected - seems an odd way to license something like FSA - but oh well :)

Damned if I can find that licensing guide though - where does it live exactly? [I've just spent 20 minutes looking on Partnernet]
