Answers
Q1. Why is there a charge for a storage capacity license when migrating files to non-HP hardware?
A1. The use of storage capacity licensing for archiving products is consistent with industry pricing standards. However, since users of HP Integrated Archive Platform and HP StorageWorks File System Extender (FSE), two of the primary archive targets for HP File Archiving software, already pay for storage capacity when using these respective products, HP will charge a flat rate for storage capacity when combining HP File Archiving software with HP Integrated Archive Platform or FSE.
Q2. How is the license for storage capacity measured?
A2. The license for storage capacity is based on the total capacity of files archived to secondary storage. This effectively represents the space made available on the primary storage.
Q3. Will HP File Archiving software work with traditional backup and recovery products?
A3. Yes. HP File Archiving software has been tested with, and will co-exist with, leading backup and recovery applications. For specific details, please refer to the Release Notes for File Migration Agent.
Q4. Will HP File Archiving software co-exist with anti-virus applications?
A4. Yes. HP File Archiving software has been tested with, and will co-exist with, leading anti-virus applications, including those from companies, such as Symantec, McAfee, and Trend Micro. For specific details, please refer to the Release Notes for HP File Archiving software.
Q5. How does HP File Archiving software compare against competitive offerings?
A5. It's difficult to compare HP File Archiving software against other solutions. Its closest competitors are from the traditional hierarchical storage management space, but these products tend to provide functionality from a combination of technologies. HP File Archiving software is focused, offering a simple, lightweight software solution targeted at simplifying Windows-based file, web, and application server storage administration through automated file migration and archive.
