We advise that you assume you need to be licensed fully and then check to see if your scenario falls under FAILOVER

and whether the 10 DAY RULE applies.

If Primary and Secondary nodes share

a SAN, with the secondary node acting as a failover, only the Primary needs to be

licensed. This is valid as long as the failover to

the secondary lasts less than 10 days per year,

which includes any testing.

Don't Mix Metrics• A common mistake is believing that

Named User Plus licenses can be used for the backup site

• Instead ring fence the DR servers contractually and negotiate a reduced cost for this license pool.

• Also make sure that the options and management packs are licensed

You DO NEED a valid license for development environments, test environments, and any

pre-production environments.

Beware• Use of OTN licenses does not necessarily

mean you are licensed correctly for Development environments.

• If you have an application in production then the ALL the Test and pre prod environments need a licence

• Named User Plus licenses may be an option or ring fence and negotiate different terms

OTN License Grant "..limited license to internally use the Programs, .. only for the purpose of developing, testing,

prototyping, and demonstrating Your application and only as long as Your application has not been used for any data

processing, business, commercial, or production purposes, and not for any other purpose.."
