Licensing

This section provides information about the Recovery Manager for Exchange licensing: when license allocation occurs, how to manage allocated licenses, view the installed license file details, and install a new license file.

When installing Recovery Manager for Exchange, you must supply a valid license file provided by Quest. The file regulates the following:

  • The number of mailboxes you can have in registered source storages.

This number includes all mailboxes in offline Exchange stores, Domino databases, and live on-premises or cloud-based Exchange organizations associated with source storages.

  • The number of Personal Folders (.pst) files you can register as source storages.
  • Whether or not you can register public folders as source storages.

This section covers:

License allocation

The Recovery Manager for Exchange license file contains a certain number of licenses for Exchange and Domino mailboxes and Personal Folders (.pst) files. Recovery Manager for Exchange allocates licenses from the installed license file to mailboxes or .pst files when you perform any of these actions:

  • Register an offline Exchange Server store or Lotus Domino database as a source storage, and then open that source storage in the Recovery Manager for Exchange user interface.

Recovery Manager for Exchange allocates licenses to all mailboxes the store or database includes. When you register the same store or database again (from another backup, for example), the mailboxes are recounted and their total number is updated with the new number of mailboxes held in the store or database being registered.

A primary mailbox and its associated archive mailbox are regarded as one mailbox.

  • Register an online Exchange mailbox as a source storage, and then open that source storage in the Recovery Manager for Exchange user interface.

Recovery Manager for Exchange allocates licenses to all online mailboxes in the on-premises or cloudbased Exchange organization to which the registered mailbox belongs.

A primary Exchange mailbox and its associated archive mailbox are regarded as one mailbox.

  • Register a Personal Folders (.pst) file as a source storage, and then open that source storage in the Recovery Manager for Exchange user interface.

When you have expended all licenses in the installed license file (that is, all licenses have been allocated to mailboxes or .pst files), to register new source storages you need to obtain and install a new license file holding a greater number of licenses. Note that you cannot revoke licenses allocated to mailboxes or .pst files.
