You can also mix parallel offering items from different sub-editions, for example, Workstations from
the Cyber Protect Essentials sub-edition and Workstations from the Cyber Protect Standard sub-
edition.
The respective protection level is assigned automatically to a machine according to its type, the
settings of its first protection plan, and this order of priority:
1. Cyber Protect Essentials
2. Cyber Backup Standard
3. Cyber Protect Standard
4. Cyber Protect Advanced
An administrator with access to the Cyber Protection service console can manually change the
protection level of a specific machine, by selecting an appropriate service quota for it. For more
information about how to do this, refer to Changing the service quota of machines.
Changing the service quota of machines
The protection level of a machine is defined by the service quota that is applied to it. Service quotas
relate to the offering items available for the tenant in which the machine is registered.
The service quota is automatically assigned when a protection plan is applied to a machine for the
first time.
You can manually change the original assignment later. For example, to apply a more advanced
protection plan to the same machine, you might need to upgrade the machine's service quota. If the
features required by this protection plan are not supported by the currently assigned service quota,
the protection plan will fail. Alternatively, you can change the service quota if you purchase more
appropriate quotas after the original one is assigned. For example, a Workstations quota is assigned
to a virtual machine. After you purchase a Virtual machines quota, you can manually assign it to
this machine. You can also release the currently assigned service quota, and then assign it to another
machine.
You can change the service quota of an individual machine or for a group of machines.
To change the service quota of an individual machine
1. In the Cyber Protection service console, go to Devices.
2. Select the desired machine, and then click Details.
3. In the Service quota section, click Change.
4. In the Change license window, select the desired service quota or No quota, and then click
Change.
To change the service quota for a group of machines
1. In the Cyber Protection service console, go to Devices.
2. Select more than one machine, and then click Assign quota.
3. In the Change license window, select the desired service quota or No quota, and then click
Change.
