Re: User based pricing

[smorrison@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

IBM is not always consistent with the how users are counted. For the 
515/525 i5/OS is licensed for _concurrent_ users, but the new replacement 
for Query, DB2 Web Query for System i, will be licensed to _named_ users.

User based pricing






I have a customer who is looking at buying a new i515 and we are fuzzy on 
what the definition of a user is. I can't find any info on IBM's website 
and 
I want the make sure the salesman is telling us correctly, that a user 
profile can sign on to multiple session and it still only counts as one.

Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.
