Enterprise Disk Licensing

We have NetBackup Standard Server and purchased the Enterprise Disk License.  However, it's not giving me the options for Disk Pools, etc.  Is an NBU Enterprise Server license required for Enterprise Disk?  I've been digging for an answer for this but haven't seen anything yet.  Sometimes NBU licensing  seems like a deep dark hole that nothing comes back from.  Thanks.

NetBackup Server with

NetBackup Server with Enterprise Disk should be OK.  (I think?)

Have you followed the procedure to create a storage server?  It's in the admin guide vol. 1 ("Creating an AdvancedDisk storage server") and also in this TechNote:

DOCUMENTATION: How to create an Advanced Disk disk pool using a media server and its file systems.
 http://support.veritas.com/docs/302540

For you, everywhere it says "media server" - that's your master.  (You probably knew that already.)

This instructions hopefully match up with your version and operating system, which you didn't provide in your original post.  :(  If not, you might want to open a support case with us and confirm the Server + Enterprise Disk combo.
