I looked at the TSM V6 beta and found there will be a license module that determines how many licenses your system will need. After a bit of debugging and reverse engineering, I obtained a snippet of the source code - Now remember, this is beta, so it may or may not make it into the shipping version:
$pvu = int(rand(1000)); If ($pvu < 900) { print "Server License Compliance: Valid\n"; } else { print "Server License Compliance: Invalid\n"; } Cheers, Neil Strand Storage Engineer - Legg Mason Baltimore, MD.

Also, Is there going to be a built in license calculator in TSM V6? Anyone IMPORTANT: E-mail sent through the Internet is not secure.
