We have Processor and Named-User licenses in our environment.

We have 15 physical boxes.

Unfortunately we had 2 Oracle databases get stood up on our VMWare farm - (before I got here!) so we'll put those aside for the time being.

What LMS did in the report they sent us was to arbitrarily assign the Processor licenses to a box where we use Named-User licenses and they applied the Named-User licenses to the proc boxes we have.

Basically we view SERVER_A and SERVER_B (RAC) as Processor Based Licensed, and SERVER_C (32 Procs) as our Named-User server (and we have the minimums required).

HOWEVER, in the LMS report, they used SERVER_C as our Proc Based Server and show it as being short, and used SERVER_A + SERVER_B (RAC) as our Named-User Servers.

Has anyone experienced that behavior from LMS before? How did you "fight" it?

Chris
