ActiveImage Protector Virtual Environment License
Actiphy offers a Virtual Environment license. One licensed copy of ActiveImage Protector Virtual Edition can be applied to one virtual environment host. There are no restrictions on the number or the types of virtual machines running on a single licensed virtual environment host.
There are no restrictions on the number of CPU sockets or cores, the size of backup source volume, etc. It is unnecessary to purchase additional licenses for Linux systems.
Install ActiveImage Protector on the respective virtual machines to use the agent-based or agentless backup feature of HyperAgent.
There is no limit to P2V conversions on the virtual environment host.
*In an HCI infrastructure, it’s necessary to purchase the same number of licenses as the hosts configuring HCI.
HyperAgent Backup Option License
HyperAgent can be used on a number of machines at the same time. If performing agentless backup for subsequent machines using HyperAgent, it is necessary to purchase the same number of HyperAgent Backup Option Licenses for those machines.
ActiveImage Protector Cloud Environment License
One license covers five virtual machines in a cloud environment.
Backup and recovery for servers in a Cloud environment requires a license designed to charge license fees based on the number of virtual machines instead of physical machines. Virtual machines in Cloud environments are not hosted on a specific virtual environment host but may migrate from host to host within that Cloud. Also, the number of virtual machines on a host may dynamically change. Under these circumstances, the traditional license system covering a specific server or virtual environment host cannot be applied to Cloud environment.
Actiphy offers a Cloud Environment License. One licensed copy of ActiveImage Protector Virtual Edition can be used for up to five virtual machines in a Cloud environment. A Cloud Environment License covers up to five virtual machines dynamically hosted on an unspecified virtual environment host. There is no limitation to the specifications of virtual machines, the volume of virtual disk, etc. You can install ActiveImage Protector on the respective virtual machines.
ActiveImage Protector Single Virtual Machine License for Public Cloud
You may use one licensed copy of ActiveImage Protector Virtual Edition on one virtual machine in a public cloud.
ActiveImage Protector™ for Hyper-V Enterprise
ActiveImage Protector™ for Hyper-V Enterprise is an agentless backup solution optimized for Hyper-V virtual environments.
ActiveImage Protector™ for Hyper-V Enterprise backs up and restores the entire Hyper-V host including the virtual machines, and can restore a specific virtual machine.
One license for one virtual environment host allows unlimited use of P2V.
For cluster environments (CSVFS) it’s required to have licenses for the respective backup source nodes. A CSVFS additional node license is applicable to the second and the subsequent nodes.
