Alan did you see, the previous example?
And any way you should read this
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96521/create.htm#999110
Setting License Parameters
Note:
Oracle no longer offers licensing by the number of concurrent sessions.
Therefore the LICENSE_MAX_SESSIONS and LICENSE_SESSIONS_WARNING
initialization parameters have been deprecated and are no longer discussed
in this book.
The point is, and is my opinion, if he want to control de number of
concurrent users, he will have to create a login trigger,
the second chance is use LICENSE_MAX_USERS, but what happens if he have 20
licenses and 40 users, and only 20 working at the same time?
The third chance is ask Oracle support (metalink and ask what they suggest
for his specific situation).
Alan, if you have metalink support, can you ask them?, I don't have.
I think they will can give a better answer, because at last, it is a problem
of licnsing, and they
must give a guide to measure it.
:)
Thanks.
