How to find the Number of CPU's for our license
Hi,
I'm trying to find the information about the Number of CPU's and users can access for our license. Is that any procedure to give that information or we can find it only from our initialization kit.

Please let me know,

Thanks

Kamesh,

When it comes to CPU's it does not tell you even during the installation, if you exceed the number authorized. They will get you during the audit. It is always better to check your account rep.

Thanks

For quite a long time now WebFocus has told you when
the number of authorized CPU's has been exceeded.
However because the installation does not abort if you try to exceed this
there are probably quite a few sites exceeding the license they have paid for.

Since 7.1 the installation codes have changed and even though the CPU
limit is still not imposed the number of different data adapters that you can
configure is enforced.

The purchase order that your company placed should have all the details
regarding what you paid for, so first point of call should be your
purchasing department or who ever is responsible for paying the maintenance.

However, if you contact IBI they can tell you exactly what you
are licensed for.
Either via your local rep, or you can raise a hottrack requesting the information.

2-cpu windows servers, because of configuration, show up as 4-cpu servers to webfocus.
When you start the WFRS, the information you need scrolls across the screen, wait till it has finished starting (?) and scroll up to the beginning and you'll see it.

Hi Kamesh,
To start, in order to get the license codes you are using do the following:

For WebFOCUS License...

Logon to the WebFOCUS Administration Console
Click on "WebFOCUS Info" link at the top.

This will show:

WebFOCUS License: nnnn
Power Painter License: nnnnnn

For the Reporting Server

Logon to the WebFOCUS Server Console

and under Workspace -> Configuration
Check on License

This will show:

License Number: nnn-nnn-nnnn-nn
License Number for Active Report: nnnnnn
Site Code Number: nnnn.nn

For Developer Studio

Click Help -> About

for the Serial Number

This should help you when you contact ibi.
