[Manoj_Matala]

Would like to test deduplication feature in netbackup7 with an evaluation key .I know , i need Enterprise disk License .  Can this be used with traditional licensing model or even for testing do i have to switch to capacity based model .

You need Data Protection Optimization license for Dedupe. 

This license is an addon regardless of licensing model (traditional per server or capacity).
So, yes, dedupe license can be used with traditional licensing model.

Best to discuss licensing needs with your local reseller.
