If we put together a standby db (SUN 4500) is Oracle going to want more license money?
Our thinking is, the license(s) we already own on the production server (also a 4500)
cover us to keep the standby db going. We will not use the stand-by server for
anything else. There will be no user
I've been told the same, but I believe the rep is just trying to increase sales. If
you think about it, you only have 1 license running at 1 time, installed at 1 time,
therefore pay for 1 license. Usually, when you switch to the fail-over, the
filesystems are umounted from production and
to pay an additional license fee, if you do not have any databases open
in any form on that machine

Yup, they want you to pay for it, because it is an additional x number of
processors. They don't care that it's not really "on" or being accessed.
At filefrenzy, this policy actually led us to turn off a few of our
processors. ;-)

How absurd of you to suggest that Oracle licensing should be logical,
ethical, and make common sense. :)

You can open a standby database in read-only mode
now. How are you going to prove that you are not
using it. Don't get me wrong, I don't agree with
Oracle licensing but the argument is off.

if you are operating in standby mode, then your database needs to be up in
order for you to apply logs from primary database. according to our oracle
rep, we have to pay for that extra license (# of cpus X cpu MHz X 1.5 for
RISC chip) i want to know where they come up with the 1.5.

I'd love to see it.
Any chance of a peek at WebSphere pricing, et alia?
Thanks!

Dennis,
PLEASE post your findings! I had to go through similar exercise recently
involving Oracle and Squeal Server, we may want to exchange notes off the
list.

thats right. if its standy, they charge you, but if you use HA, say ibm sp's, hp mc
serviceguard, or sun's /veritas trusted cluster, then you save on oracle licensing.
btw, i heard veritas trusted cluster is a bear to set up (maybe the list can shed more
light on this). i never used it, but

In my previous job as a dba in a dot com, it was found db2 to be more
