PowerProtect Data Manager 19.15 Deployment Guide
License types
There are several different types of licenses, and they can provide licensing for different periods of time.
The available license types are described in the following table.
| License type | Description |
|---|---|
| Trial | The license that is used by default when
PowerProtect Data Manager is deployed. It enables full use of the product without adding a license key for up to 90 days. When the trial period ends,
PowerProtect Data Manager continues to operate with full functionality so that you can add a permanent license.
NOTE:A trial license does not allow the use of SupportAssist.
|
| Front-end protected capacity by terabyte (FETB) | The primary model of licensing, which is based on the capacity that you want to protect. For example, you can purchase a 100-TB license, which enables you to protect up to 100 TB of data. |
| Socket-based | This license is based on the number of asset hosts that you want to protect, and it applies to every type of protection job. A license is required for each CPU socket on every physical asset-source host where protected assets exist. If a virtual asset is protected, count the number of CPU sockets on the physical host of the virtual machine. In cluster environments that protect NAS, storage array, file system, database, or virtual machine assets, you must count the number of CPU sockets of each active host in the cluster. |
Perpetual and term-based (subscription) licenses
Licensed software is offered with perpetual or term-based licenses. Your quote identifies whether your license rights are perpetual or term-based.
A perpetual license enables you to use the software while you are in compliance with the terms of the license agreement.
A term-based license enables you to use the software for a specified time, while you are in compliance with the terms of the license agreement. At the end of the license term, you must stop using the software, extend the license term, or purchase a new license.
