I'm going to vent for a minute about the CPU licensing thing. IBM doesn't make it easy to validate because a true CPU count is never reported by the client.
Case in point, we have two 8 way Linux DB2 servers that we only backup via the API. We have 16 CPU licenses just for those boxes because IBM told us we had to have them. We added the licenses to TSM and still each of those nodes only take 1 CPU license. William Jean wrote:
Hi, It's time to true up licenses with IBM again, does anyone have an automated process for gathering client CPU information that they would be willing to share? Thanks, Bill
