Choose the Right Licensing Type to Match Your Organization’s Needs
Each Arcserve UDP Edition is available in three different licensing options: universal, instance-based, capacity-based, and socket-based. Different licensing models help you choose the most convenient billing model to meet organizational requirements.
Arcserve UDP is available as a subscription (1-, 3-, and 5-year contracts) as well as perpetual + maintenance bundle (available only for 3- and 5-year contracts). Organizations can scale data protection as they grow, without being locked into a rigid model or paying for more than they need. Centralized license management makes it easy to allocate, reassign, and track licenses from a single console, while subscription options keep costs predictable and provide access to the latest features and version upgrades.
Capacity-Based License
The capacity-based license comes in Arcserve UDP Universal License and Arcserve Managed Capacity Program (MCP). It includes a capacity-based licensing model that allows you to protect a purchased number of front-end terabytes of data on an unlimited number of systems.
The licenses are available in UDP Standard, Advanced, and Premium editions.
For example, for a customer to protect 8TB of file server data and utilize full tape backup capabilities, 8x units of “Arcserve UDP 11.x Premium Edition – Managed Capacity per TB between 6TB – 15TB – License Only,” plus maintenance would be required.
To protect an additional 10TB, the customer would buy 10x more copies of “Arcserve UDP 11.x Premium Edition – Managed Capacity per TB between 16TB – 25TB – License Only,” plus the associated maintenance, as the total amount of protected data is now 18TB.
OS Instance-Based License
The instance-based licensing option allows you to protect an OS instance on a physical computer or virtual machine. Per OS, Instance-Based licensing supports the current UDP editions: Standard, Advanced, and Premium.
Socket-Based License
A socket-based license allows you to protect a physical computer and an unlimited number of virtual machines on the same computer. The number of socket-based licenses should be equal to the number of populated CPU sockets in the system, with an unlimited number of cores per CPU socket included.
With socket-based licensing, a socket is a populated Physical Processor (CPU) located on the device/hardware being protected. For example, Server A, running one quad-core CPU installed in a single physical CPU socket, will only require one socket-based license. Server B, running two dual-core CPUs installed in two physical CPU sockets, will require two socket-based licenses.
There is no limit on the “cores” (the logical microprocessors in a physical microprocessor) per socket. An empty socket without a processor does not require a per-socket license.
