Re: Oracle "unlimited concurrent" license
Depends on who you talk to. Our sales rep is a bit of a bulldog, and he had no problem with our power units license. Same with some consultants that checked it out, and their business is managing software licensing.

RE: Oracle "unlimited concurrent" license
Unless you management has a very OLD license agreement with Oracle, which I believe have all been replaced, then their wrong and you are right. Now if you have a named user license upgrade your processors with no worry. But if your running on a processor license or an older power units license, call your sales rep. You REALLY do not want a visit from Oracle's License Management Services folks.

RE: Oracle "unlimited concurrent" license
Title: RE: Oracle "unlimited concurrent" license Depending on the type of data/application ; one can buy licensing based on the CPU, nbr of CPU's within the nodes. For example; what if you have a n-tier application where the data maintained within the Oracle RDBMS is exposed to an un-countable population? The example of licensing that I have seen in that case has been "license the old fashion way-class of box, cpu, nbr of CPU's". There are all types of different licensing arrangements that can occur. It really depends on the creativity of the sales and supply chain folks within each company. But I agree with Dennis - get the contract out and have an individual familiar with the contract read the fine print with you... greg -Original Message- From: DENNIS WILLIAMS [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, June 30, 2003 6:19 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: RE: Oracle "unlimited concurrent" license Peter Concurrent licenses were offered years ago.

Re: Oracle "unlimited concurrent" license
Yes, we have that type of license. Oracle doesn't sell this license anymore, but they did at one time. I can install Oracle on any platform I want, as many servers as I want. 453 users for EE and 400+ for Std Edition. Best look at your contract though to be sure.
