How multiple instances license is calculated?

Hi
I got bit confused about license. SQL Server license is per core based, for instance standard edition in 2 core physical machine is 2*$1793, correct me if I am wrong.
1. Does cost remain same if I install additional instances on the same physical machine? 
2. In case of multiple cluster instances.
2. Does increasing node in cluster increases license cost? I believe so.
Please refer Microsoft link, if possible.
Thanks

I think don’t need to buy multi license for multi instances on one server. You
can run multiple instances of SQL Server 2005 on a single computer. Multiple instances are used by organizations that have several applications running on a server but want them to run in isolation so that any problem in one instance will not affect the other
instances. In SQL Server 2005, you can now run multiple instances with the Workgroup, Standard, and Enterprise editions when they are licensed server/CAL or on a per-processor basis. Here is as list for Pricing and Licensing FAQ: 
http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2005/en/us/pricing-licensing-faq.aspx#,
here is a thread about Licensing:

  • How to reference multiple instances of the same Java object from PL/SQL?

    Dear all,
    I'm experimenting with calling Java from PL/SQL.
    My simple attempts work, which is calling public static [java] methods through PL/SQL wrappers from SQL (and PL/SQL). (See my example code below).
    However it is the limitation of the public static methods that puzzels me.
    I would like to do the following:
    - from PL/SQL (in essence it needs to become a forms app) create one or more objects in the java realm
    - from PL/SQL alter properties of a java object
    - from PL/SQL call methods on a java object
    However I fail to see how I can create multiple instances of an object and reference one particular object in the java realm through public static methods.
    My current solution is the singleton pattern: of said java object I have only 1 copy, so I do not need to know a reference to it.
    I can just assume that there will only ever be 1 of said object.
    But I should be able to make more then 1 instance of an object.
    To make it more specific:
    - suppose I have the object car in the java realm
    - from PL/SQL I want to create a car in the java realm
    - from PL/SQL I need to give it license plates
    - I need to start the engine of a scpecific car
    However if I want more then 1 car then I need to be able to refrence them. How is this done?
    Somehow I need to be able to execute the following in PL/SQL:
    DECLARE
    vMyCar_Porsche CAR;
    vMyCar_Fiat CAR;
    BEGIN
    vMyCar_Porsche = new CAR();
    vMyCar_Fiat = new CAR();
    vMyCar_Porsche.setLicensePlates('FAST');
    vMyCar_Porsche.startEngine();
    vMyCar_Fiat.killEngine();
    END;
    Thanks in advance.
    Best Regards,
    Ruben
    My current example code is the following:

    public static String GET_RMGOBJECT_NAAM () {
    String toestand = null;
    if (_instance == null) {toestand = "DOES NOT EXIST";} else { toestand = "EXISTS";};
    System.out.println("instance : " + toestand);

    You can do this by manually creating a new iterator binding in your binding tab.
    So instead of dragging the VO directly to the page, go to the binding tab, add a new executable iterator binding, and point to that one from your ELs in the page itself.

  • How to use multiple instances in Oracle CRM On Demand

    Hi,
    Just wanted to know if we can have multiple instances in Oracle CRM On Demand? Our company has bought licenses for Oracle CRM On demand and have received a single link for the development / staging, but we have two seperate business units that will be using this systems and their processes are completely different....I thing i wanted to ask is if we can have a sub system within a big system without both interfering into each others processes.
    I hope it makes sense.
    Thanks
    Ahmed

    Hi Ahmed,
    This might be quite possible. Again, it depends on the organizational and technical complexity of both these BU's.
    1. There can be different processes in different geographies in which your application might be used. Inorder to achieve this in a single instance of CRM On Demand.
    There can be some fields that are specific to certain region, in that case you can use Roles, Access Profiles, Dynamic Layouts to change the Fields of the layouts which will allow the user to enter/read information specific to only that user.
    2. Workflows can be used to trigger an event only for users in certain BU defined in your application.
    Also the Sales Process is specific to a Role and by configuring them correctly you can make these processes fit your requirements.
    3. There are somethings that always remain the same though, like Accounts, Contacts , other entities and the pre-defined relationships, their names. Off-course these can be modified but when modified they apply through the applications. So you won't be able to have different names to the Account entity in the Major BU and the subset BU.
    I would suggest you get in touch with Oracle Expert Services if you are looking to get more details on how you can make best out of a single instance.
    Good Luck!

  • How do I prevent a user from opening multiple instances on the same computer?

    On the site oldnavyweekly.com there is a .swf that prevents users from opening multiple instances of the site at the same time on the same computer. If you open the site, and try to open it a second time in another window, it won't load. You can't open the site again until the first window is closed. How did they implement this?
    From my analysis it is NOT:
    1. Cookies - The block still takes place if you try opening it in IE and also try opening it in Firefox simultaneously.
    2. Flash Cookies - The block still takes place if I disable flash cookies.
    3. IP Based Block - You are not blocked if you open the site on two separate computers with the same outbound IP address. From my analysis, their server does not assist in the block at all.
    It seems as if their .swf is creating some kind of global system-wide object that can be detected in other instances of the application on the same machine. How did they implement this?
    Thanks!

    you're welcome.
    actually, unless you take an extra step, the first opened swf will close.  if you want the 2nd to close, the initial receiving lc will send a message to sender that causes the sender to close.

  • How can I open multiple instances of the same version of FF?

    I understand that if I have multiple profiles, I can run different versions of FF side-by-side (like 3.6 and 4).
    However, what I'm interested in is how I can launch multiple instances of the same version of FF (4, for instance) using the same profile. In other words, I want to be able to double-click the desktop icon for FF, and open a new instance, and keep doing that as many times as I want. I don't want to have a different icon and profile for each instance (too much overhead to keep a dozen+ profiles in sync).
    I can always launch one FF window instance, and then keep clicking ctrl+N to launch new instances from inside it, which they all share the same profile (as I want). So, basically, I want to be able to do that from my desktop icon, rather than by having to do it with the keyboard ctrl+N sequence.

    But I don't understand why whatever Firefox does when you click ctrl+N can't also be done (with some sort of command-line switch) from a desktop icon?
    In other words, I clearly can create many FF instances (even if they are the same FF.exe process) by doing ctrl+n a bunch of times. Why then can't this behavior be done from a desktop icon with some parameters?
    As far as I know, FF is the only browser that doesn't directly allow multiple browser instances from desktop icons. IE, Chrome, Safari, Opera, etc... all let me launch a new instance (even if they are all single process and the instances are shared within the process).

  • How to Patch Multiple Instances on same oracle home

    Hi All
    I Have 4 Instances running on server like below
    DEVSTAG /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0
    DEVUAT /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0
    DEVREVT /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0
    DEVREG /opt/oracle/product/11.2.0
    i want to Apply the patch set 11.1.0.7.1 to DEVUAT & DEVREVT Instances , Can someone please help .. i dont want this patch set applied to DEVSTAG Instance .. how to exclude that Instance from getting patched ?
    Thanks in advance .. hope my requirement is clear.

    Which patch are you referring to ? The database patching tool (opatch) generally applies any database patch to an ORACLE_HOME. You will need to follow the instructions in the README of the patch. If you need to only patch one instance, then you will have to create a dedicated ORACLE_HOME for each database (i.e they will not share database executables). If you share ORACLE_HOME amongst multiple instances, then you will have to patch all of them simultaneously.

  • How do you manage multiple Instances of an adjustment

    I'm trying very hard to learn Aperture but, one thing that I can't seem to figure out is how to manage multiple instances of the same adjustment. As an example, I create a new exposure adjustment to brush in exposure on the subjects teeth and then a second exposure adjustment to bush in an exposure on a tree in the background and a third instance to brush in exposure to some other element in the photograph - how do I know which exposure brick adjusts which element in the photo. I guess I could use the overlay to identify the element associated with each adjustment brick but that seem kind of heavy handed.  Is there a better way to associate each instance of an adjustment brick with the elements in the photograph it impacts?

    Frank has answered your question.  I have a follow-up question:

    Are you able to apply multiple Exposure Bricks?  I have never been able to do that.
    The workflow you describe seems to derive from Photoshop (with it's named layers).  Aperture is by design more focused on the end result than the process.  I tend to use as few multiple Bricks as possible.  I do vary the strength of the Brush when brushing in different parts of the Image within the same Brick.

    Hi,
      How do I open multiple instance of Adobe Live Cycle Designer ES 8.2. I have two forms and I need to compare them. Another situation is I want to correct/copy the contents by keeping the old and new one under the view simultaneously. I also want to take advantage of multiple monitors
    The MDI style windows with Ctl+Tab to switch between documents is not helping me in the context explained above
       adobe Acrobat work on multi instance if I type acrobat.exe /n;
    but if I type "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Designer 8.2\FormDesigner.exe" /n;, its just opening the existing livecycle instance
    please help

    I don't think you can run two instances.
    But you can stretch the main application window across both monitors and tile the two documents inside the main window.

  • How can I force TestStand to create multiple instance of an activex server instead of share the same reference?

    Hi, All:
         I am trying to migrate a application coded by VC++ to TestStand+CVI. This application opens multiple serial com ports and send commands to test targets, and get responses from these targets. The VC++ application creates multiple thread, and every thread create an activeX server instance which is responsible for opening serial port,sending test commands ,and getting response. It works fine as every thread has itsown activeX instance, so data and commands can be handled in the right serial port successfully.
         Yet when I works on TestStand, I got problems. I choose parallel model as the process model. I create a activeX object reference with AxtiveX/COM Adapter, and store the reference in a sequence local varialbe. If there is only 1 testsocket, It is OK. But if there are multiple test sockets, and communication between the application and test targets will be directly to the last test target. I try to popup a message within a execution to indicate the value of the activeX object reference, and all of them are identical. But this is not the behavior I want.
        So, is it possible to force TestStand to create independent instances of an activeX server? How can I make it work?
    Thanks

    Thanks for your comment, Dan.
          Yet I do get problems as none of us know how to program an activeX server so that it can be forced to be a single-instance or multiple-instance.
    As I mentioned earlier, there is existing application which is written by VC++ can create multiple instances of this activeX server, all I have to do is to create multiple threads, and initiate an instance of this server to contrl multiple test targets.
         My colleague said he creates the server with VC++ ATL, and cofigure it to be dual-interface and STA. And in the VC++ application side(client side), I use smart-pointer in threads to create an instance of the server:
     IMySerialServer pIMySerialServer;
      HRESULT hr = pIMySerialServer.CreateInstance("UUTCmd.MySerialServer");
      if(FAILED(hr))
       AfxMessageBox("Fail to create instance.");
    And then I got multple instances of the activeX server. Every thread can have itsown com port, can send/receive commands indepently. I have no idea how can I make it work on TestStand. Would you show me some reference documents or sample codes?
    Thank you

  • How to get rid of multiple instance of same machine

    Hi, I have an issue with my MacPro as I have multiple instance of the same computer. Let me explain : My machine appears as MacPro. but sometime it connect as MacPro (2), or MacPro (3) and so on... I now have MacPro (11). This happens when I get problem with my network... it reconnect the machine with a new name... Big deal you'll tell me... let it be that way and carry on... But Here is where I have a problem : Third party application such as SpeedDownload see all those Instance as Multiples machines and now it won't open because it tells me that I only have a licence for one computer and that the software is installed on multiple computers as MacPro, MacPro (2), MacPro (3), ... and MacPro (11).
    Is there a way I could get rid of all the other "Instances" and only keep on machine which would be MacPro?
    Thank You,
    Martin B.

  • How to install FB into multiple instances of Eclipse

    I have multiple instances of eclipse (various versions and
    combinations of plugins) and want to know how to install FB into
    one than one instance of Eclipse?

    You need to pass a reference of the StatisiticalStore instance to the ExcelReader class. See the updated code below.
    public class StatisticalStore
         static int evaluatedDataLength = 3;
         private double forecasts[];
         static int x=0;
         public StatisticalStore()
              initialiseStore();
         public void initialiseStore()
              forecasts = new double [evaluatedDataLength];
         public void updateStore(double singlePrediction)
              forecasts[x] = singlePrediction;
              x++;
         public static void main (String args[])
              StatisticalStore store = new StatisticalStore();
              ExcelReader excelSheet = new ExcelReader(store);
              ExcelReader excelSheet1 = new ExcelReader(store);
              ExcelReader excelSheet2 = new ExcelReader(store);
              for ( int i=0; i<evaluatedDataLength; i++)
                   System.out.println(store.forecasts);
    class ExcelReader
         double aNumber;
         StatisticalStore store;
         public ExcelReader(StatisticalStore aStore)
              store = aStore;
              generateRandom();
              updateStatisticalStore();
         public void generateRandom()
              aNumber = Math.random();
         public void updateStatisticalStore()
              store.updateStore((aNumber*store.evaluatedDataLength)-1);

  • How to create multiple adapters / multiple instances of adapters

    i need to read out more than one incoming mailboxes. do i have to install as many partitions of the smtp adapter as ingoing mailboxes need to be connected? if so, how do i start more than one adapter on the same machine / same hub? if i simply try to start the same adapter twice, i get the following error:
    The Adapter is already running. You cannot have same adapter registered twice even if installed on different machines for a single integration hub. For scalability, if you want to use multiple instances or partitions of the same adapter, please set the adapter.ini parameter to allocate instance or partition values as appropriate. Please stop the Adapter before starting it again.
    so i could configure a second adapter.ini file for the second partition. but how do i start the partition? there is no ini-tag in the start-script provided with the adapter installation.

    Yes, copyAdapter is the solution.
    I wanted just to add this point : the SMTP adapter cannot read attachment file. Il you have thos problem install fetchmail/procmail/ripmime it woks very well and allow to manage many mailboxes.
