Product notes

Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 may only be licensed on servers that have a maximum capacity of 2 sockets.  In addition, notwithstanding any provision in your Oracle license agreement to the contrary, each Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 database may use a maximum of 16 CPU threads at any time.

License Type Notes

Named User Plus:  is defined as an individual authorized by You to use the programs which are installed on a single server or multiple servers, regardless of whether the individual is actively using the programs at any given time. A non human operated device will be counted as a named user plus in addition to all individuals authorized to use the programs, if such devices can access the programs.  If multiplexing hardware or software (e.g., a TP monitor or a web server product) is used, this number must be measured at the multiplexing front end.  Automated batching of data from computer to computer is permitted.  You are responsible for ensuring that the named user plus per processor minimums are maintained for the programs contained in the user minimums section.

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.  The number of required licenses shall be determined by multiplying the total number of cores of the processor by a core processor licensing factor specified on the Oracle Processor Core Factor Table (see below). All cores on all multicore chips for each licensed program are to be aggregated before multiplying by the appropriate core processor licensing 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, Standard Edition 2 or Standard Edition in the product name (with the exception of WebCenter Enterprise Capture Standard Edition, Java SE Support, Java SE Advanced, and Java SE Suite), a processor is counted equivalent to an occupied socket; however, in the case of multi-chip modules, each chip in the multi-chip module is counted as one occupied socket.

For example, a multicore chip based server with an Oracle Processor Core Factor of 0.25 installed and/or running the program (other than Standard Edition One programs or Standard Edition programs) on 6 cores would require 2 processor licenses (6 multiplied by a core processor licensing factor of .25 equals 1.50, which is then rounded up to the next whole number, which is 2).  As another example, a multicore server for a hardware platform not specified in the Oracle Processor Core Factor Table installed and/or running the program on 10 cores would require 10 processor licenses (10 multiplied by a core processor licensing factor of 1.0 for ‘All other multicore chips’ equals 10).

User minimums

These minimums provide for the minimum number of named users plus required, all actual users must be licensed. For Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 the minimum when licensing by Named User Plus (NUP) metric are 10 NUP licenses per server.

Term Notes

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Year Terms: A Program license specifying a 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 Year Term shall commence on the effective date of the order and shall continue for the specified period. At the end of the specified period the Program license shall terminate. Perpetual licenses will never expire.

Technical Support Notes

License set: A license set consists of (i) all of your licenses of a program, including any options, Data Enterprise Management programs, or selfservice module licensed for such programs, (ii) all of your licenses of a program that share the same source code. Programs that share the same source code are (among others): Database Enterprise Edition, Database Standard Edition, Database Standard Edition One, Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 and Personal Edition.
(This note addresses the most common situation only. The complete definition can be found in the Oracle Technical Support Policies.)

Matching Service Levels: When acquiring technical support, all licenses in any given license set must be supported under the same technical support service level (e.g., Software Update License & Support, Oracle Communications Network Premier Support, or unsupported). If you add Extended Support, you still must maintain Software Update License & Support for the entire license set; subject to availability, you must acquire Extended Support for all licenses of a particular version release of a program if you acquire Extended Support for any license in such version release. You may not support a subset of licenses within a license set; the license set must be reduced by terminating any unsupported licenses. You will be required to document license terminations via a termination letter.
