We use Oracle 7.3 (soon to be upgraded to 8) on NT4 as a backend to access 97 and pretty soon our intranet.

Typically 8-12 people are running the application at once. Since they are just launching the access application they are all connecting using the same Oracle User account.

What got me concerned is that when I looked at the session manager, I noticed that every user creates 2 and sometimes 3 oracle sessions at once. First of all, I was wondering if this is normal. The other this is, Am I using 1 license for each session??

We only have 44 licenses and the number of users is expected to increase shortly so this can be potentially be a big problem.

Thanks in advance.... Received on Sat Oct 23 1999 - 17:03:09 CDT
