License type node

Displays one of the following types of Essbase licenses:

  • Named: Essbase is licensed for named users, meaning that the license file specifies the maximum number of users that can be created on Essbase Server.

  • Concurrent: Essbase is licensed for concurrent users, meaning that the license file specifies the maximum number of users that can be logged on to Essbase Server at any given time. With this type of license, you can create the maximum number of users allowed on an Essbase Server, specified in the “Limits” appendix in the Oracle Essbase Database Administrator's Guide.

  • CPU: Essbase is licensed for a specific number of CPUs on the Essbase Server computer. For example, if the license specifies 4 CPUs, the computer on which Essbase Server runs must have 4 or fewer CPUs.

  • Unlimited: Essbase is licensed for concurrent users with unlimited ports. With this type of license, you can create the maximum number of users allowed on an Essbase Server, specified in the “Limits” appendix in the Oracle Essbase Database Administrator's Guide. There is no limitation for the number of users that can be logged on to Essbase Server at any given time. This is a legacy license type from previous releases.
