A Dedicate Storage Node can only backup its own data. A Storage Node can
backup data from other servers as well.

This is correct. The dedicated storage node licence used to be called a
"SAN storage node". Legato changed the name because it was thought to be
confusing. Now it is named as (IMHO) the opposite of what it really
does. It's not a machine that is dedicated to the task of being a
storage node, it's dedicated to backing up a machine that also runs
applications. A total misnomer. Just try to remember that it's the
opposite of what it says and you won't go far wrong.

Davina,

Surely you are being a tad harsh on the poor person who decided on the
name... If you think of it as 'a storage node (which it is) that is
dedicated to backing up its own data' then the name doesn't seem all
that bad... :)

Hmm... I think something like 'networked storage node' and 'local storage
node' would be simpler to understand.
