Actually, in 5.x, VTL licensing for specific vendors was also based on TB, migrating away from legacy per drive methodology.
>>> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 3/23/2006 7:43 am >>> NetBackup 5.n was licenced by tape drives. NetBackup 6.n is licenced by TB in the VTL. I don't know the detail, e.g. is that raw TB etc. I also don't know if they changed the licencing for 5.n, or if it is still needing drive licences.
