Your purchase authorizes you to use DFM in a single installation. You are authorized to install the DFM component on one server.

If you must distribute DFM to other servers in order to meet application-specific or server performance requirements, you are authorized to install additional instances of CD One, 4th Edition, to host them. To install multiple instances of the DFM component, including backup systems, you must purchase additional copies of DFM.

Installation Prerequisites

For server and client requirements, refer to Installing and Setting Up Device Fault Manager.
