I am not sure about licensing,,, but if the above is correct... then it has
to be this.
probably when intel introduced with the concept of hyperthreading back in
Pentium4 days , where a CPU Core handled 2 threads at once... Even though
there was only one physical CPU Core, OS saw it as 2 CPUs, in order to
consider that that they must have factored the cost as cpu cores * .5 to
charge only for the physical cores... and slowly along the way, this was
misinterpreted and Oracle started loosing money?
Thanks,

No, it doesn't make sense but it is correct.

This would be for IAS/Weblogic on X64 hardware. Our understanding is
that each core has a factor of .5. We are considering a 2 processor
server with 8 cores per processor for a total of 16 cores. Based on
the factor this would represent 8 processors to be licensed.
Does this make sense?
