QoreStor 7.4.1 - Release Notes

Product Licensing

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.

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, 1TB 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 512TB 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"
