Accurate licensing feature and other updates with nbdeployutil
With NetBackup 8.1, nbdeployutil offers an accurate licensing feature for the capacity licensing option. The accurate licensing model uses a unique mechanism that gathers the front-end data size during a backup operation. The gathered data is used in the capacity licensing report.
The capacity licensing model also detects overlapping backup selection data from the backup policies and automatically adjusts the charged data size. The capacity licensing report now displays the volume of the front-end terabyte data that is processed using NetBackup CloudCatalyst.
For more information about accurate licensing, see the NetBackup licensing models and the nbdeployutil utility section in the NetBackup NetBackup Administrator's Guide Volume II for NetBackup 8.1.
