The Dell DR4000 system licensing is all-inclusive for using OST. No additional Dell licensing is required to
use OST or the optimized duplication capability (the Dell OST plug-in that gets installed on a supported
Linux or Windows media server platform is a free download from Dell).
However, Symantec NetBackup requires that you purchase a Symantec OpenStorage Disk Option license.
Similarly, Symantec Backup Exec requires that you purchase the Deduplication Option to enable the OST
feature.
NOTE: To increase data storage capacity on a DR Series system, you can
install a supported expansion enclosure that meets these requirements:
Uses the Dell PowerVault MD1200 storage array (maximum of two
