Text on the Homepage:
For all Perpetual Licenses with CPU Sockets, Veeam Backup & Replication and Veeam ONE products will enable additional FREE Instance licenses to be available for use - one Instance per each CPU Socket with maximum up to 6 Instances. In case the Subscription License Key is installed, the FREE Instances will no longer be available. This applies as well to license keys merged from Perpetual and Subscription licenses.
For Veeam ONE, these FREE instances can only be used on monitoring and reporting on Veeam Agents from the connected Veeam Backup & Replication.

Question: That is the right licence right?

One Notebook is one Instance?

Licence for Agent is only available as Subscription, You can´t buy Agent Licence as Perpetual right?

Hello,

Question: That is the right licence right?

Here is the sample calculator which shows what license key should be bought in different scenarios: https://www.veeam.com/pricing-instance-calculator

One Notebook is one Instance?

It depends on what edition you select. Please take a look at "2.1.1. Veeam Instance Licensing conversion table" section in our licensing rules.

Licence for Agent is only available as Subscription, You can´t buy Agent Licence as Perpetual right?

Yes, Agents are sold in bundles and, right now, there is only the subscription license type.

Thank you!

Make sure you get the right licence type. If you're running 9.5 U3 or earlier, you can't use the instance licence model designed for U4 +, and Veeam won't let you downgrade a U4 licence to U3 (trust me, I've tried).

Thx for your Input!
A carefull look on it,it looks like this:

Veeam Backup Agent for one Notebook costs 348 EUR for one Year Listprice for Essential Licence
But If I want, I can use the licence on 9 other notebooks. (I think I checked the licence rules pdf)
The licences in the company (older than 9.5 U3 ) will stay independant / devided.

Since you want to create two jobs targeted to local repositories, then it is effectively a server edition of the Agent. Please review these links for more info:

1. Search for multiple job
2. Backup Job Settings

Veeam Backup Agent for one Notebook costs 348 EUR for one Year Listprice for Essential Licence
But If I want, I can use the licence on 9 other notebooks. (I think I checked the licence rules pdf)

I think this is for the Standard edition only, which will leave you with 3 servers in overall, not 9. Please take a look at instance weight in the link from my post above.
