Frequently Asked Questions
What is a socket-based license migration?
A socket-based license migration is the process of moving from an older Veeam licensing model that counts physical CPU sockets to a newer model, often subscription-based, that may count workloads or other metrics. This ensures you are using current and supported licensing.
Why should I migrate from socket-based licensing?
Socket-based licensing can become outdated and may not align with modern IT environments or Veeam's product roadmap. Migrating ensures you benefit from the latest features, ongoing support, and potentially more flexible licensing options.
Does this migration affect my current backups?
This license migration is designed to ensure uninterrupted data protection. Your existing backup jobs and data should remain unaffected during the transition, provided the migration is performed correctly according to Veeam's guidelines.
