Licensing QoreStor

QoreStor offers a backend capacity licensing model to allow for simple integration with other Quest Data Protection products.

  • Standalone license - QoreStor is licensed by the amount of backend capacity required. Standalone licenses are available as either perpetual licenses (with no expiration), or term licenses, which expire after a specified period of time.

Perpetual QoreStor licenses are additive, meaning that if you purchase a 5 TB license now, and a 10 TB license in the future, you will have 15 TB total capacity.

NOTE: Licenses for QoreStor are specific to the QoreStor server. When installing a license, the System ID for your QoreStor server is required. You can obtain the System ID with the command system --show | grep "System ID"

Evaluating QoreStor

QoreStor offers two methods for evaluation:

  • Default installation - If no license is installed, QoreStor defaults to a no-cost, 1 TB capacity installation supported by the QoreStor Community. This option requires no license and does not expire. If a license is applied to a server running in this mode, the free 1 TB is not added to the purchased license capacity.
  • Full capacity trial - available on the Quest Software Trial site, which provides a 30-day evaluation license for up to 360 TB or 512 TB (if MSP support is enabled) and access to Quest Support. After the evaluation period has expired, the QoreStor server will operate in Manual Intervention mode until a license is applied. To use QoreStor beyond that time frame, you will need to purchase a perpetual standalone license. If a longer trial period is required, please contact Quest Sales.

If you have purchased a standalone license, you can install it using the system --license command, as described in the QoreStor Command Line Reference Guide.

NOTE: When ordering a license, the System ID for your QoreStor server is required. You can obtain the System ID with the command system --show | grep "System ID"

NetVault Plus Data Copy Licenses

NetVault Plus Data Copy licenses are term licenses for QoreStor installations with limited protocol support. Data Copy licenses can only be installed on QoreStor systems that have RDA protocol support, but do not support CIFS, NFS, Object (S3), OST, or VTL (NDMP, ISCSI) connections. Data Copy licenses are functionally identical to QoreStor term licenses. These licenses are specific to an individual QoreStor server (based on system ID) and they have defined expiry dates.

Preparing QoreStor for a NetVault Plus Data Copy License

Prerequisite:

Before installing a Data Copy license ensure that the QoreStor is placed in Data-Copy mode.

To place a QoreStor in Data-Copy mode,
To place a QoreStor as a superuser, execute the following command:

/opt/qorestor/bin/data-copy-mode --

NOTE:The above command will not enable Data-Copy mode if there are existing CIFS, NFS, OST, NDMP, iSCSI, or Object (S3) connections. These connections will need to be removed before Data Copy mode can be enabled.
As part of enabling Data-Copy mode, the command will remove support for the above protocols and restart QoreStor services.

To verify that QoreStoris in Data-Copy mode, use the system --show command to display the status of Data-Copy mode:
