How to License UNIX and Linux Data Mover

CA ARCserve Backup UNIX and Linux Data Mover requires the licenses and components described in the following table:

Server Type	Component Required	Licensing Requirements
Primary Server	You must install the following components on the primary server: CA ARCserve Backup Base Product (Primary Server) CA ARCserve Backup Central Management Option (Optional) CA ARCserve Backup Storage Area Network (SAN) Option (Optional) CA ARCserve Backup Tape Library Option (Optional) CA ARCserve Backup Enterprise Module Note: All licenses are managed centrally from the primary server.	You must install and license the Storage Area Network (SAN) Option and the Tape Library Option only if you are backing up data to libraries that are shared between the primary server and the data mover server. You must install and license the Enterprise Module license to perform Disk Staging backups with more than two streams of backup data or to back up data using multistreaming. You must register one Enterprise Module license for each data mover server. For more information, see the Administration Guide.
Data Mover Server	You must install the following components on data mover servers: CA ARCserve Backup UNIX and Linux Data Mover Client Agent for the file system (for example, AIX, Linux, and so on) (Optional) CA ARCserve Backup Agent for Oracle. This agent is required only to protect Oracle databases. Note: All licenses are managed centrally from the primary server.	By default, setup installs the client agent for the file system when you install UNIX and Linux Data Mover. With this configuration, you do not require a separate license for the client agent for the file system. You must install and license the Agent for Oracle only to back up data at Oracle database granularity.

Examples: How to License UNIX and Linux Data Mover

You want to protect data that resides on a data mover server, and back up the data to an FSD that is attached to the data mover server.
- Primary server--Requires you to install the CA ARCserve Backup base product and CA ARCserve Backup Central Management Option on the primary server. You register and manage these licenses from the primary server.
- Data mover server--Requires you to install CA ARCserve Backup UNIX and Linux Data Mover on the data mover server. You register and manage the UNIX and Linux Data Mover license from the primary server.
Note: This configuration does not require you to install CA ARCserve Backup Storage Area Network (SAN) Option, CA ARCserve Backup Tape Library Option, or both on either server.
You want to protect data that resides on a data mover server, and back up the data to a library that is shared between the primary server and one or more data mover servers.
- Primary server--Requires you to install CA ARCserve Backup base product, CA ARCserve Backup Central Management Option, CA ARCserve Backup Tape Library Option, and CA ARCserve Backup Storage Area Network (SAN) Option on the primary server. You register and manage these licenses from the primary server.
- Data mover server--Requires you to install CA ARCserve Backup UNIX and Linux Data Mover on each data mover server. You register and manage the UNIX and Linux Data Mover licenses from the primary server. In addition, you must register one Tape Library Option license and one Storage Area Network (SAN) Option license with the primary server for each data mover server.
