Ghost Licensing

[Grommit]

Hi

 

We are in the process of purchasing Ghost

 

There are 2 versions

 

Norton Ghost 12 and Symantec Ghost Suite 2

 

Norton Ghost can be bought as a box product and Suite 2 has to be purchased with a min of 5 licenses..

 

My questions are

 

Does Norton Ghost have Ghost Cast?

 

Why do I have to license suite 2 5 times as I only thought you had to license if you were using the consol function and that licensing was not needed for ghostcasting or disk to disk ghosting ?

The license system for ALL versions of ghost is this:

 

One license for EVERY machine it has ever been used on unless 1) The HDD is destroyed or 2) The HDD is wiped with a special gdisk command that blanks it and removes the ghost signature.

 

The number of client agents you manage or install is irrelevant, a license is used when you image a machine with ghost.
