Known Limitations

1. The number of gigabytes consumed by imported VTCs will not limit Virtual Library Recovery;
however, the installed license key, might limit the size of a Virtual Library. In case the size of the
VTCs is higher than the license key defines, the Virtual Library will go offline.
2.
By mistake the same VTCs could be imported into different Virtual Libraries of the same domain.
There is no protection to do this, yet the actual import of those VTCs will cause a problem in the
Data Protector Express database.
Therefore it is good practice to keep the VTCs of different Virtual Libraries in different Storage
Groups.
