Hi All,
I know that I should speak to Oracle to get a definitive answer but am just
looking for a quick heads up if this is a dead end...
The question I have is that can I use hard partitioning (in this case Solaris
Zones) in conjunction with Standard Edition licencing? I had a look at the
os-zones-hard-partitioning-2347187.pdf but it is about calculating equivalent
numbers of cores, which is an Enterprise Edition metric, not a Standard Edition
one. I am therefore assuming this document is specific to Enterprise
licencing.
In Standard Edition we have to licence per socket - do zones have any place
here in reducing the socket count or getting around the cap - or would I just
have to ignore the zones and licence every socket on the physical server and
also limit myself to a server with only 4 sockets?
Thanks!Charlotte
