Personal support license for Oracle.

I am a developer for a company that spends over one million dollars a year on Oracle licenses. I have ordered the free DVD's for Oracle Linux and I am planning to install it on My personal computer at home. I am then going to install 32bit Oracle 11 for Linux so that I can evaluate the new database. I wanted to purchase a Linux support license for my one home computer so that I would have access to web support and Linux patches. This computer is owned by me, not the company. When I attempted to go into oracle store, I was unable to purchase the $99.99 support license until I registered. Unfortunately, you must supply a company name and address to register in oracle store to purchase the Linux support license. I do not want to put the support contract under my company, it is MY computer. Since I could not find any way to register as an individual, I called the toll free number to ask the sales department. I was explaining my problem and as soon as I said a personal license for one installation of Oracle Linux, the sales person hung up on me. They did not say anything, just hung up. I am upset and do not feel that this behavior is acceptable if oracle is going to be selling Linux support.
Now the question. Does anyone know how to register for Linux support as an individual?

Beilstwh,
Many customers have purchased a Network support for personal use. If you purchase via the online store, you can use your own name as the company name.

Oracle VM Manager: Includes a Restricted-use License for Oracle Database?

-Thanks-

Please note that Oracle Lite is no longer being actively developed, and no further releases are planned. The recommended small footprint database from Oracle is Berkeley DB.

Partition license for oracle 9i

Dear all,
we are having oracle 9i database (9.2.0.4) on hp-ux platform. The database is being used for DWH purpose, so table partitioning feature is used.
We have cpu based Oracle enterprise edition license for this database. Please suggest if we need to procure any license for partitioning feature too or the same license will work for Oracle 9i database?
As nowhere i found anything about partitioning license for oracle 9i database, though for oracle10g it is written in documentation that partitioning feature is optional package and we need to procure additional license for it.
Thanks in advance...

for license Information you should contact oracle local office in your country , Also note that 9i is unsupported now .

Licensing for Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module

My company is looking at moving from our internal tape backup to Oracle (Cloud) Database Backup. We have questions about costs for licensing the Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module. We have been using Oracle Secure Backup Express Edition and would like to know if there are additional API/License costs for using Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module in additional to the $33/TB per month cost listed on the Oracle Cloud Database Backup page at https://cloud.oracle.com/database_backup?tabID=1394421701419.
We have spoken with 6 different sales and technical reps at Oracle and at Oracle Cloud and none have been able to provide a clear answer for this question. We have been directed to this forum, by the staff at Oracle Cloud.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know about this tape not appearing to the OS, some other OS related documentation would help you there. This may be due to the fact that this is a removable disk storage device, rather than actual tape.
However I have checked the OSB tape support matrix and this device is not listed, so this is not supported for use with OSB.
Thanks

License for oracle

hi guys
Good Question.
if i download the oracle 10g enterprise version from oracle website. Can i use that enterprise version as commercial by getting a license from oracle? or oracle will send us a license product.
what is the deference between free download and license version?

They are right, not only that, if you purchase license, you also get metalink access only through which you can online assistance, raising TAR etc.
There are different license policies, per user license and per processor license.
Also they have term license which you can use for one year, two year like that with Oracle's support in case of problems. Otherwise, they wont help you out in any manner, unless its purchased. For full information on those license and term license information pls look into the following urls:

License for oracle Help

I have a question about the licensing requirements for Oracle Help.
I am writing the on-line help to support a commercial application which will be charged for. can I use Oracle Help for developing on-line help?
Thanks.
bai

Hi,
Q: I read the license text on the download page... I didn't see any reference to the rights to re-distribute the icebrowser that comes with the Oracle Help. Does one need to obtain a separate license with Icesoft the maker of IceBrowser ?
Q: Related to a message posted earlier about Oracle's plan for Oracle Help... I can tell from the messages folks feel the Oracle Help has some advantages over Sun Java Help, and it can be considered as a replacement for Sun Java Help. However, in order to migrate from Sun Java Help to Oracle Help, it's important to understand the roadmap.. a roadmap will make it clear that Oracle is committed and helps users justify a migration.
Q: Also, since Oracle is committed to Eclipse... what is going to happen to Oracle's commitment to Oracle Help, if people start building applications using the Eclipse Rich Client Platform and use the Eclipse Help system ?
Thanks in advance for your responses,
Edwin

License for Oracle Database Lite 10g Embedded?

Hi
I found Oracle Database Lite 10g Embedded SDK at the
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/lite/embedded.html
Look like that it is possible to use embedded Oracle Lite database in standalone applications.
I have win32 application with Oracle Lite support.
Now I'd like create public demo version of this application but can not found LICENSE for this possibility.
And what about possibility using embedded Oracle Lite database in commercial products?
Do I need buy some license for it, or users have to buy them?
Thank you,
Siarhei Berdachuk

Thank you for response.
Do this words: "You can download the base installs and run the demos though." means that I can download Oracle Database Lite 10g Embedded SDK, and create my demo (trial) applications with embedded Oracle Lite dll's without paying anything, and users have to pay for per User or CPU license only after buying my application?
Thank you,

License for Oracle Virtual Desktop Client

I am trying to find a statement by Oracle as to wither Oracle Virtual Desktop Client is considered freeware or not. At one time I thought I saw a statement to the effect that OVDC was provided with a current support agreement but I can't seem to find that statement now. Does anyone know where there is verbage to this effect?

I am afraid it is a bit more complicated than that. You can buy licenses per device or per named user. If you license per "named user" then you can install and use OVDC an as many devices as you wish. But if your use "per device" licenses, you'll need a license for each Sun Ray DTU and also all devices with the OVDC installed.
I found this on iTunes concerning OVDC for iPad:License: Use of Oracle Virtual Desktop Client requires a valid Sun Ray Software or Oracle Virtual Desktop Infrastructure license.Bjoern

License for Oracle Unix client

Let say I have an application running on Unix 64bit (SunOS,HPUX or AIX) accessing a DB with proC, php or jdbc OCI.
From XE doc I understood that it is possible to have the DB running Oracle XE on Linux 32bit and the application connecting to the DB with Oracle SE or EE Client from Unix 64bit.
What license is required for Oracle Unix client?
Is the configuration above free (or am I naive)?

As least Oracle instance client is Free according to Oracle.

About the Oracle License for Oracle Dataguard

hi,
I have purchased Oracle 10gR2 EE for my primary setup.
And i need to install Oracle 10g R2 Dataguard (Physical Standby), So wheather i need to purchase a serparate license for the same.
I have heard that in Oracle 11gR2 Active data guard that License in required?
with regards
A.Aravind

From the Software Investment Guide - see last sentence
Standby – In this method, one or more copies of a primary database are
maintained on a standby server(s). The sites in a standby configuration may be
dispersed geographically and are connected by Oracle Net Services. As the
primary database is modified, log information generated by the changes are
sent to the standby database(s) and subsequently applied to the standby
database. If the primary database fails, a standby database can be activated to
be the new primary database. Solutions like Oracle Data Guard (included with
Oracle Database EE) or customer-generated scripts can be used. In this
environment, both the primary and the standby databases must be fully
licensed. Additionally, the same metric must be used to license both
databases.

Can you provide link from supported OS for oracle databse

Example
I want to know whether Oracle 11g (11.1.0.7). support RHEL 5 ?
I need the link where i can find tat
Thanks

You asked "+I want to know whether Oracle 11g (11.1.0.7). support RHEL 5+"
From the doc I linked earlier, you can read :
"+The following are the operating system requirements for Oracle Database 11g Release 1:+
+...+
+Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5+"
That is the answer to your question. Now if you changed your question regarding the matrix certification, the best way is to check the follwoing, help yourself :
1. the Oracle Support Certification tool (http://support.oracle.com) - not free
2. check the corresponding documentation (http://docs.oracle.com and look for the installation docs for the db version you want and OS) - free

License for Oracle Data Guard

Hi
For a data guard solution, is the license including in the Oracle Data Guard package or we must buy additional license for the standby database ?
Thanks.

Hi
I will do that.
But i just wanted to know if a standby database means new license.
I mean, when the primary database works, the standby database do nothing except get the archive redologs.
And when the standby database is on, then the primary is down.
So i didn't see why we'll need futher licences.

Personal support license for Oracle.
