bob Thanks for this! I guess as the post mentions MP5 that its ONLY MP5 and above     Regards Simon Weaver 3rd Line Technical Support Windows Domain Administrator EADS Astrium Limited, B32AA IM (DCS) Anchorage Road, Portsmouth, PO3 5PU Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Bob Stump [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 04 May 2006 16:04 To: Paul Keating; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu; Jeff Lightner Subject: [Veritas-bu] Summary - can SAN media server restore clients? This is a summary of my original post.   Yes. functionally and legally with Netbackup 5.1 MP5 it is now possible to use a SAN media server to accomplish restores to ANY client.   this was Etrack Incident = ET522055   explained in the README for NetBackup 5.1 MP5         >>> "Paul Keating" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 5/4/2006 10:46 AM >>> yes, that's what you said, but it is irrelevant to the conversation about whether a SAN Media server can backup other clients.   whether or not SSO is used (whether drives are dedicated or shared) has no effect on whether a machine licensed as a SAN Media server can backup/restore other clients.....the only thing affecting whether a Media server can backup/restore other clients (whether by legality or functionality) is whether it is licensed as a "pure" media server or a SAN media server.   Paul     -- -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeff Lightner Sent: May 4, 2006 8:36 AM To: WEAVER, Simon; Bob Stump; Marianne Berg; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] can SAN media server restore clients? Isn't that what I said?  I thought someone was asking why they couldn't use SAN media server to do backups of other hosts and was answering that.  Apparently someone was making a statement instead.
