Networker Server License Issue

Here's my scenario.   I have (1) Networker Server that is fully licensed and working fine with a DataDomain 670.

I bought a new DataDomain 670 and installed it a co-lo.  I setup replication between the two DD's and everything is fine.

I setup a new Networker Server in the co-lo to controll some seperate jobs for the local machines out there.  However the licenses i'm

trying to use don't work. I was told by my rep that i could have as many networker servers as i wanted under my 5TB license file. I'm thinking

this wasnt the case after all?   Do i need a new license everytime i make a new networker server?

Thank you.

Yes, you need a separate license for each NetWorker server.

License installed on one NetWorker server can not be shared with another NetWorker server.

Are you using capacity license or legacy model licenses?

I'm using a capacity based model of 5TB .  If both networker servers are in the same data zone i still need another license?

I'll have to talk to my rep but i wanted to get some feedback from the community first. Thanks.

NetWorker server IS datazone so if you have 2 backup servers then you have 2 datazones.  I do not use capacity license yet, but my understanding is that it goes against datazone and if that is the case - then for each datazone you need either license or you need to break existing one to two of 2.5TB or similar (not sure if predefined tiers exist or how it is done at the moment).
