Hello,

 

Could you say, how is licensing SMBR for Microsoft Exchange Server in two controller array with Premium Bundle?

 

Look at the screen:

 

2016-10-12 10_54_43-13916542_16-Sep-16_10-41-28_2016-09-16-FAS8020HA 24x1200GB Premium Bundle 5y sup.jpg

 

We have here SMBR (2500 mailboxes) and two controllers, does it mean that I can use 2 * 2500 = 5000 mailboxes on the array?

 

Or it's 2500 mailboxes  for the whole two controller array?

 

Thanks in advance

Hello, 

 

 

Usually there two types of license 1) Per server license &  2) Per storage system license ( Per storage system is dedicated to that particular storage )

 

Refer to this licensing KB :https://library.netapp.com/ecmdocs/ECMP1649824/html/GUID-235441CB-FE13-493C-BA6E-76B91421D529.html


I would suggest reaching your Netapp sales representative in this matter. They should have clear idea about the volume based license. 

 

 

 

Thanks,
