 - Enables the VTL interface to hosts. A license for 80 virtual tape drives is pre-

installed, and additional virtual tape drives licenses can be added through the VTL 

license area. (License key is pre-installed on all DXi6700 models.)

Backup Application Specific

 - Enables the backup application specific path to tape 

capability. (License key is pre-installed on all DXi6700 models.)

Note:

DXi6700, DXi6701, and DXi6702 support NDMP V4. 

Data Deduplication

 - Enables the data deduplication capability. (License key is pre-

installed on all DXi6700 models.)

Replication

 - Enables replication capability. (License key is pre-installed on all 

DXi6700 models.)

Storage Capacity

 - Enables the installed storage capacity for the system. (License 

key is pre-installed on all DXi6700 models.)
A storage capacity license key is pre-installed for all capacity shipped from the 

factory. You must install license keys for additional capacity purchased after the 

initial point of sale are installed.

DXi Accent

Quantum’s DXi Accent software accelerates backups and reduces network bandwidth 

requirements by distributing deduplication between the backup server and DXi 

appliances. With DXi Accent, backup windows are reduced and network bottlenecks are 

eliminated.
