Licence processor

1. mY ORGANIZATION has BOUGHT LICENCE PER PROCESSOR FOR TWO PROJECTS BEFORE TWO YEAR.
NOW IT WANT TO APPLY TWO PROJECTS LIKE HUMAN RESOURCE AND material MANAGIMENT SYSTEM
SO DOES IT NEED TO BUY ADDITIONAL ORACLE SOFTWARE FOR THESE TWO.OR CAN IT USE THE PREVIOUS SOFTWARES.
2, IF IT IS MUST TO BUY ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE ( PROCESSOR LICENCE) IS THAT SOME DISCOUNTS on price since THE ORGANIZATION is CUSTOMER FOR ORACLE (THAT MEANS THE ORGANIZATION BOUGHT Oracle Software FOR OTHER PROJECT BEFORE TWO YEARS).
3, THERE IS SUPPORTS. Software Update License & Support has been paid FOR THE OTHER TWO PROJECTS TWO YEARS AGO. iT NEEDS TO PAY FOR SUPPORT AGAIN FOR the new PROJECTS?
4. Is there any means to pay for Software Update License & Support of all projects in one package rather than separate for individuals
4. i WANT TO UPGRADE FROM STANDER Edition TO E.E EDITION. DO i NEED TO INSTALL THE BACH OR DO i NEED TO INSTALL THE ee? If I am licenced on SE do I need to buy EE or can I download from the oracle site simple and apply.
Thank you

thank you Lee .... sounds good :).
Also, my motherboard (SuperMicro X5DL8-GG) is using a ServerWorks chipset GL-LE with a CIOB bridge. Certain releases of Solaris 8 can't be installed properly because a PCI error occurs. Do you know if exists any patch for this error or should I install Solaris 9? Or maybe is not working at all with this chipset?
Thank you in advance!

Licences & processor

We need to by ONE licence of Oracle 9iAS PER processor.
Based on experience, WHEN does it become necessary to run Oracle on a server with MORE THAN ONE processor ?
Thanks.

It depends on what kind of application are you going to run on it, how many users are going to access it and other such parameters.

DI server - Licencing in Dual processor

Hi all,
We have the next configuration:
-. 1 server with dual processor ( tecnology Intel Core Duo ). For this configuration, the DI server need 1 or 2 licences ?
-. If the answer is 2 licences, how many professional users are necessary to access B1 database? 1 or 2.
thanks

Hi Humberto,
I am not sure whether this forum is the place for these questions, but here are the answers:
- the first question is answered in SAP Note no. 890591 - and it is "2"
- the second question is phrased a bit imprecisely from what I understand:
- to my knowledge (but this may have changed; again this may not be the right forum for these questions) the minimum number of Prof. users that need to be ordered is 2 for any "Installation". However I think you will need at least 1 user to do all the administrative tasks. Please check the list in the lincesing guide and note that any user is assumed to have "Add-On ..." license. That's why any user can add a BP even though not having been assigned any B1 license!
Please note that authorizations are not directly related to licenses!
HTH,
Frank

Licence Issues - Xeon Processor

Recently I bought a server system based on two Xeon Processors with HyperThreading Technology. What kind of licence do you need for a such system ... 2 CPU or 4 CPU?
Note: A single Xeon Processor with Hyper Threading Technology enabled might be detect by OS as 2 virtual CPU.

thank you Lee .... sounds good :).

Dual Xeon (with HT) box and SINGLE CPU WLS Licence

Can I install WLS 8.1 on this box and run it - or will it refuse as it sees 2 processors (2 physical + 2 logical) - or do I have to remove one of the CPUs or buy a 2nd licence. Due to a mix up we have this mismatch.
I have other apps on the box which will probably need the extra CPU power of the 2nd real cpu, but don't want WLS to attempt to use it or get upset and not work at all.
M.

Khosro,
Neither configuration would be ideal for this: The Xeon configuration's CPU clock speed is far too low to do much good while the i7-4790(K) configuration has only four physical cores.
Furthermore, Ray-Tracer 3D acceleration is now EOL (End-Of-Life): Adobe is no longer developing this type of 3D GPU acceleration any further. It is going with something else for 3D rendering, which currently may not be GPU-accelerated at all.
Thirdly, how much is the most are you willing to spend? You see, what Eric suggested may be priced far higher than your maximum budget permits, judging by the current prices for the RAM, CPU and motherboard.

Oracle Licencing in Solaris Zones

Scenario
If we setup a server with 6 processors and we setup 1 resource pool with 4 processors called oracle_pool.
We then create 2 Oracle Containers both using the same resource pool, ie "oracle_pool", will I require 4, 6 or 8 Oracle Processor Licences ?
The CPUs are single threaded to keep it simple.
Every example I find only talks about one to one relationships between containers and resource pools.

I think your Oracle sales rep would have the final word on this, but I believe you would need 8 cores of license (2 x 4 core). Assuming you're not using a [discounted core from a multicore system|http://www.oracle.com/corporate/contracts/library/processor-core-factor-table.pdf] . You wouldn't owe for just 4 cores even though you've made a 4-core pool because you have 2 containers sharing that pool, which doesn't meet the '[hard partitioning|http://www.sun.com/third-party/global/oracle/consolidation/Containers_Oracle_041305.pdf]' requirement that would limit it to 4 (basically a pool dedicated to a single container).
As far as I know the licensing terms always refer to physical processors not
virtual processors. So 6 physical CPU's requires a licence for 6 processors.Looking at the first linked PDF, they track cores, not sockets... but they typically count each core in multicore as 0.5 or 0.75 of a license (so a single socket quad-core Xeon may need 2 licenses, not 4 or 1). But I don't make quotes for a living, so I may be totally wrong :)

SQL Server plug in licence???

Hi,
Do you need a licence to deploy the SQL Server plug in for grid?
Ive looked in the Oracle price list http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/technology-price-list.pdf (is this the price list for 10g or 11g?) and wondered if it was either
System plug-in for Non Oracle databases
Managent pack for non oracle middleware
If one of these are the correct ones then at what point do you have to licence? can you just have the agent deployed to monitor the server?
Licencing is so confusing

Hi,
We have the same problem to evaluate the cost for Grid Control implementation.
For System Monitoring Plug-in for Non Oracle Databases, we have to pay USD 1,800 + 396.00 Support Per Processor.
Do we have to take account of Grid Control server processors or all SQL server processors ?
The problem is the same for "System Monitoring Plug-Ins for Non-Oracle Middleware"
Thanks

Cluster and licences

Hello !
I'm totally new at Oracle DB, and I really would appreciate if someone could help me to solve, what I would qualify as an "licence understanding problem" ;-).For our corporate we would like to completely switch to Oracle and we want to set up the
following architecture :
10 PCs (1 CPU per PC) are forming a cluster. This cluster will have to store our database and handle the different queries. Our problem is now to know how many licences must we purchase for our cluster. If I'm storing my Oracle database on several PCs ( partitioning) does it mean that I have to purchase one licence
per CPU or per User Named Plus?.
If I'm purchasing just one Licence (Personal Edition/Professionnal Edition), how many cluster PC I am allowed to use ?
Thanks a lot for your help and clarifications !
MatD:-)

Oracle Standard Edition supports up to 4 CPUs and provides RAC support without additional license. You can choose between named user or processor based license with named user at $300.00 per named user with minimum of 5 users per CPU. The processor license is $15,000.00 per CPU with unlimited users.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/oracle10g/pdf/DS_General_Oracle_Database10gR2_SE_0605.pdf
Oracle Enterprise Edition does not have a limit on the number of processors and RAC is an added option at $10,000.00 per CPU. There is no named user license with RAC. The database license can be either named user or processor. Prices for named user are $800.00 per named user with a minimum of 25 user per CPU). The CPU license option is $40,000.00 per CPU with unlimited users.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/oracle10g/pdf/DS_General_Oracle_Database10gR2_EE_0605.pdf
Those prices are list prices and do not reflect any discounts. You should talk with an Oracle Sales representative and discuss your proposed migration so you can get a better idea of the costs associated with options. The sales rep will discuss discounts at that time as well.

What licence do I need to install server 2012 R2 standard on a single i-7 cpu machine?

Yes, you are all covered.

Licence for Development Oracle standard edition

Hi,
I am having named user licence for the standard edition Oracle database.
Can I create multiple instances for the same machine and redstribute my licences internally?
Can we run multiple versions of oracle on same machine under one license ?

WARNING: None of this internet advice has any legal standing and you would be absolutely recommended to confirm with your local Oracle sales representative.
Can I create multiple instances for the same machine and redstribute my licences internally?Yes, as long as you have enough named user licenses to cover all of the users who will be connecting to all those instances
Can we run multiple versions of oracle on same machine under one license ?Yes, as long as you have enough named user licenses to cover all of the users who will be connecting to all those instances of different versions
If you have a large number of users (say > 50) it may be cheaper to purchase a processor license for the server. You will need to check this with your local Oracle sales representative as processor licensing has its own licensing metrics e.g. O/S platform and CPU.
Note that what my sales rep says is ok may not be what your sales rep says is ok, so get confirmation in writing for reference.

How many server licences do i need

I am designing a small data center with physical servers connected to a SAN which is then backed up to a NAS for backup. The physical server will be running 13 critical application using VMware for high availability. How many window server licences would
i need to purchase. Is it one per physical server? or would i need one for each VM also.
Thanks

Hello,
if one VMWare host should run more then 2 VMs you need a Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter edition (unlimited versions from Windows VMs on the host) from Windows or 7 Windows Standard licenses (max. 14 VMs).
Keep in mind that processors count into the license requirements.
"...using VMware for high availability..."
This means that you should have at least 2 VMWare hosts which have the RAM and processors to run in caseof hardware problem from the other host ALL VMs.
So you are now need at least 2 Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter licenses or 14 Standard editions.

Oracle Licence Query

Hi,
I have an application to be migrated from Country to a Global DC. The application runs on Oracle 10.2g and both Oracle and Application are on the same server. We need to migrate this application to a new server in GDC and vendor informed that he would re-install the app and setup Oracle. There are 7 Oracle DB's on the current server and vendor say they provided licence for only 1 Oracle DB. Nobody know from where the licence for other 6 DB's were procured.
Question: Is there a way to find out licence number for other 6 Oracle DB from the server itself? On the server along with lincece number can we find who the provider was..? Whether the app Vendor or Oracle directly?
We are unable to proceed with Migration until this info is not received.
Any info on this is highly appreciated
Regards
Nitin

First, let's get the usual dire warning about licensing and internet advice out of the way: Licensing issues are best confirmed by Oracle sales representatives.
One licenses a database server and not individual instances. There are two types of licenses: NUPP (named user) and PP (processor).
If the server was licensed for x number of users spread between the 6 databases and your new database would add another y new and distinct users you would need to purchase an additional y units of NUPP licenses. However if your database server has a processor license, there is no additional licensing required, however many database instances you cram into the server. This is for physical servers - for virtualized hosts this issue gets a little murky.
Now on the question of license number, there is nothing in the database that will tell you that. If the license is registered to the vendor then only they will have the information you want.

SQL Cal licence

Hi every body.
I need a new profesional licence for a new user. Do I also buy a new SQL CAL licence or it is enought with the SAP Profesional user licence ?

Dear Tornel,
Here is what I've got from partner portal about SQL cal license and SQL licensing for B1 :
MS SQL SERVER LICENSING ESSENTIALS FOR SAP BUSINESS ONE
Introduction
With this document, SAP wants to provide you with clear guidelines regarding the Microsoft SQL Licensing structures relating to SAP Business One.
The full and detailed SQL Server restrictions are included in the SAP Business One pricelist in the additional provisions. These provisions are the legal restrictions which apply to the SQL Server license purchased from SAP.
Although a lot of attention has been put into this document, no rights can be derived from this document and the 'conditions for Use of Microsoft SQL Server when licensed from SAP' is the only document that describes the terms and conditions that apply.
Content of this document:
Run-time license
Run-time license restrictions
Run-time license and data reporting guidelines

How to determine my SQL Server licensing for SAP Business One?
Frequently Asked Questions
Practical examples of complex network environments
Back to Top
Run-time license
SAP Business One supports the Microsoft SQL Server database system. SAP offers a run-time license of Microsoft SQL Server as an optional service to its customers. Using the run-time restricted SQL Server licensing is not mandatory for SAP Business One. The end-customer has to ensure proper licensing for SQL Server which can also be done with an SQL Server license purchased from a Microsoft partner (Commercial license).
When a Microsoft SQL Server license is purchased from SAP, a run-time restricted license of MS-SQL Server 2005 'Standard edition' is licensed. The 'run-time' restricted license has additional restrictions in use compared to the commercial MS-SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition licenses. Please note that a customer do not have to purchase SQL licenses from SAP in any instance. SAP resells the SQL licenses as a convenience for partners and customers.
A commercial SQL license cannot be purchased from SAP, but need to be purchased from a Microsoft Reseller.
Back to Top
Run-time license restrictions
A run-time restricted license of MS-SQL Server purchased via SAP is a license which can only be used in combination with the SAP Business One Software. This means that the license cannot be used in combination with other software products. In general the restrictions are:
The SQL Server run time license cannot be used to develop new software applications.
Customers or Partners who are developing new applications /add-on's (for example using SAP Business One Software Development Kit) cannot use the runtime license of SQL Server. Developers have to use the commercial versions or development license of Microsoft.
The SQL Server run-time license cannot be used in conjunction with any software application, databases or tables other then the SAP Business One application except for add-ons developed with the SDK.
For example, when a third party application is running outside the SAP Business One environment at the customer's, for example a specific time-registration application or some 'own developed' system, the runtime license cannot be used.
Partner add-ons developed with the SAP Business One Software Development Kit can be used with SAP Business One running on a run-time restricted license of SQL Server.
The SQL Server run-time license cannot be used as a 'stand-alone' software application.
Back to Top
Run-time licenses and data reporting
It is allowed to use a reporting tool to run queries or reports from existing tables in the SAP Business One databases.
Using for example Excel / Crystal Reports or any other reporting tool to connect directly to the SAP Business One database is allowed as long as it is used for reporting purposes only subject to a valid run-time restricted MS SQL Server license.
Back to Top
What is the difference between a 'per CPU' and a CAL license?
Per CPU licensing
A 'Per CPU' license can be used to license an SQL Server installation on a server and link the license to a single processor. In case a server has 2 CPU's and both CPU's will be linked to SQL Server, 2 'Per CPU' licenses are required. Within the SQL Server management console you can select how many of the CPU's in the server will be used. For a 'per CPU' license it does not matter how many users connect to the SQL Server.
Back to Top
Client Access Licensing (CAL)
The CAL licensing allows you to install SQL Server to one SQL Server and assign the license to that server. Within this installation it is allowed to run as many instances as you need.
The number of logins is determining the number of SQL CAL licenses. A login user is a network user that accesses SAP Business One. A login user can have one or more user licenses assigned. For example; User A has a limited logistics and a limited financial user license assigned to the same login username. In this case there is one login user who only needs one CAL even though the number of SAP user licenses is different.
Please note that when the license of the SAP user licenses changes this might have an effect on the required CAL licenses and additional CAL licenses have to be purchased. To avoid licensing errors, SAP strongly advices to keep the number of CAL licenses equal to the maximum number of user licenses in SAP Business One.
The CAL licenses are per user and cannot be used for concurrent connections.
Back to Top
When is a 'Per CPU' license mandatory?
A 'per CPU' license in mandatory if you cannot determine how many users will connect directly or indirectly to the SQL Server. For example, when an internet Web shop is linked to an SQL Server database, the number of web users cannot be determined and a 'per CPU" license is required. This also applies to other (internal) Web based solutions where the number of users connection cannot be controlled.
For SAP Business One a 'per CPU' license is mandatory for:
the e-Commerce server
The DI-Server if the number of users connecting to the DI-Server based add-ons cannot be determined.
Please note that a valid 'per CPU' license is required. This does not mean that the license has to be purchased from SAP.
Back to Top
How to determine my SQL Server licensing for SAP Business One?
When you determine the SQL Server licensing you have to ensure that all servers running SQL Server are licensed. See also FAQ's
If you already have a valid SQL Server license or purchased such from other suppliers, you do not need to purchase an SQL Server license from SAP.
Ensure the Licensed version SQL Server is supported by SAP
Ensure the license is not another 'run-time' restricted license from another software vendor
Ensure the license has enough CAL / 'per CPU' licenses available to also be used with SAP Business One.
Do you purchase the e-Commerce server?
The e-Commerce server always requires a valid 'per CPU' license for MS-SQL Server for each CPU used by MS-SQL Server. The 'per CPU' license can be a 'run-time' restricted license from SAP or a commercial license from a Microsoft partner.
Please note that every server where SQL Server is installed requires proper licensing. If the e-Commerce server uses a different SQL Server as SAP Business One, both servers have to be licensed. In this case the e-Commerce server can have a 'per CPU' license where as the SQL Server for SAP Business One could run on a CAL or CPU licensing.
Which SQL Server license do you need when you purchase the DI-Server?
If you already have a 'Per CPU' license available you do not need an additional 'Per CPU' SQL Server license providing the existing licensed SQL Server is used.
Can you determine the number of named users accessing the DI-Server through the add-ons?
No >> you should license SQL Server 'per CPU'
Yes >> a 'per CPU' license is not mandatory but depending on the number of logins it might be cost effective. Every user has to have a CAL.
When in doubt, SAP strongly advices to use 'per CPU' licensing for the DI-Server.
Client Access License (CAL) License
You do not need a CAL license if you already have valid 'Per CPU' license available for the specified SQL Server.
You need one CAL SQL Server license for each login in SAP Business One.
Example 1: a license with 4 Professional users and 1 Limited CRM, 1 logistics users and 1 limited financial user is in total 7 users in SAP Business One. If the licenses are assigned to also 7 logins then you would need 7 CAL licenses.
In case the 1 limited financial user and 1 limited logistics license has been assigned to one login (1 user can have multiple licenses assigned), then you would only need 6 CAL licenses.

Below you can find a flowchart that could assist you to chose between 'per seat' or 'per CPU' licensing.

How many Oracle Licences required ?

Hi,
Can somebody help me in understanding the number of oracle licences required for the following server specifications :-
Server is SUN V890 4x UltraSparc IV DualCore running Solaris 9.
Please be elaborative , as I need to understand and learn, how is it being calculated.

If you go to http://store.oracle.com, choose your country, and then choose Licensing Definitions you will see text along the lines of
sumitsingh3 wrote:
Processor: shall be defined as all processors where the Oracle programs are installed and/or running. Programs licensed on a processor basis may be accessed by your internal users (including agents and contractors) and by your third party users. For the purpose of counting the number of processors which require licensing for a Sun UltraSPARC T1 processor with 4, 6 or 8 cores at 1.0 gigahertz or 8 cores at 1.2 gigahertz for only those servers specified on the Sun Server Table which can be accessed at http://oracle.com/contracts , “n” cores shall be determined by multiplying the total number of cores by a factor of .25. For the purposes of counting the number of processors which require licensing for AMD and Intel multicore chips, “n” cores shall be determined by multiplying the total number of cores by a factor of .50. For the purposes of counting the number of processors which require licensing for all hardware platforms not otherwise specified in this section, a multicore chip with "n" cores shall be determined by multiplying "n" cores by a factor of .75. All cores on all multicore chips for each licensed program for each factor listed below are to be aggregated before multiplying by the appropriate factor and all fractions of a number are to be rounded up to the next whole number. When licensing Oracle programs with Standard Edition One or Standard Edition in the product name, a processor is counted equivalent to a socket.
If you follow the link again and get to the Sun Server table, I don't see a V890 listed. I also don't believe the V890 is using the UltraSPARC T1 processor, so you would end up using the 0.75 multiplier rather than the 0.25 multiplier.
Given that,
4 sockets * 2 cores per socket * 0.75 = 8 * 0.75 = 6 processors

Trying to get icloud, installed snow leopard, now it says I need OSX, but my processor isn't right for it. Is this possible? Do I need to buy a nw computer? will I loose all my mobile me storage?

Trying to get icloud, installed snow leopard, now it says I need OSX, but my processor isn't right for it. Is this possible? Do I need to buy a nw computer? will I loose all my mobile me storage?

You will lose the entire contents of your iDisk whether or not you migrate to MobileMe as there is no equivalent in iCloud and MobileMe will be terminated at the end of June. You will need to download any data which you don't have on your Mac already.
Snow Leopard is not compliant with iCloud and most of the facilities will not work. You can migrate from MobileMe to iCloud at http://me.com/move even with Snow Leopard: when asked to confirm that your Mac is running Lion just lie and say 'yes'. Of course you won't be able to access iCloud directly from your Mac.
If you have MobileMe mail set up to collect mail from external POP accounts you should cancel this before migrating, or you may find it still working in iCloud (where it isn't supposed to) and with no way of stopping it.
This will be the situation with Snow Leopard when you have migrated:
Your email, calendars, and 'Find my iPhone' will be migrated to iCloud. Contacts and Bookmarks cannot be migrated from a Snow Leopard Mac.
Your iDisk, together with website hosting and Gallery, will continue to work as before until next June.
Syncing of Dashboard Widgets, Dock Items and Keychains between Macs, and Mail Accounts, Mail Rules, System Preferences, Signatures & Smart Mailboxes between Macs & iOS devices, will cease altogether.
You will be able to access email and calendars on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point.
There appears to be no method of syncing contacts (though Address Book on a Mac can be synced with Google or Yahoo address books - I don't know how reliable this is).
There are a couple of third-party solutions which may be of interest.
BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion. A single user licence (two machines allowed) is $49.99.
Soho Organizer can sync Calendars and Contacts with iCloud on Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion. A single user licence (multiple machines allowed) is $99.99.
