- This is a question for Oracle Sales and your legal department, not for
the internet. Your existing license may have provisions in it that may be
different from any other license, potentially invalidating any answer we
provide;
- Oracle generically has 2 kinds of database license - named user and CPU
based. If your license is 'named', then a license is tagged to a specific
name or person and you can not easily transfer that; if your license is
CPU, generally there is no persistant link (in a legal sense) between the
specific user and the license - almost 'concurrent user' style.
