HCL OneDB server licensing
The HCL OneDB™ server product incorporates a resource based license model, in contrast to a system based on hardware processor value units (PVUs). This allows you to run a small OneDB instance on a large system without incurring the penalty of paying for licensing all the hardware. Once you have chosen the CPU resources required for a particular operating environment they can be shared dynamically across multiple instances. This is controlled by utilizing the FlexNet licensing system from Flexera® software.
