Re: Another licensing Q

Hi,
Disabling cores in BIOS is not recognized by LMS. The fact that you need to reboot doesn’t matter for them. It is ok in ODA because you do it with a command provided by Oracle so that it is recorded (even if it is just a perl script writing in a text file).
Install OVM and configure it as hard partitioning and then you can licence only the cores required, and use the others for other apps. Regards,
Franck
