Agent Licensing
The type of CTERA Agent license depends on your operating system:
When installed on this OS... | The CTERA Agent is licensed as a... |
Windows Server | CTERA Server Agent |
Other Windows operating systems | CTERA Workstation Agent |
Linux | CTERA Server Agent |
Mac OS-X | CTERA Workstation Agent |
Both agent types offer the same functionality.
• C-Series gateways (C200/400/800//800+): CTERA Agent licenses are taken from the licenses included in your cloud storage gateway. Licenses that exceed the number included in your cloud storage gateway are taken from the workstation agent/server agent quotas allocated to your CTERA Portal account. A license is taken for as long as an agent is defined in your cloud storage gateway. If you are no longer using an agent, you can log in to the end user CTERA Portal as an administrator and delete the agent from the cloud storage gateway using the CTERA Agent Manager.
Cloud Storage Gateway Model | Included Workstation Agents | Included Server Agents |
C200 | 20 | 0 |
C400 | 50 | 0 |
C800/C800+ | 50 | 0 |
For licensing of additional server or workstation agents, contact your CTERA-authorized reseller.
• The Virtual Gateway by default does not include a license of any type. It must connect to the CTERA Portal to obtain a license to function, as well as workstation agent or server agent licenses.
