So if it was my system I would have a server with the TSM hub server along with the OC. This way I a

Hi Ken, Do you mean that you would have a TSM server that would be dedicated to be the hub server, without having any other role (except maybe lib manager and/or config manager) ? In that case, how would I consider the licence for this server, with no client registered ? -- Best regards / Co
