Oracle RAC |
Multiple instances can have different values, but the total for all instances mounting a database should be less than or equal to the total number of sessions licensed for that database. |
Note:
Oracle no longer offers licensing by the number of concurrent sessions. Therefore the LICENSE_MAX_SESSIONS
and LICENSE_SESSIONS_WARNING
initialization parameters have been deprecated.
When the limit specified by LICENSE_MAX_SESSIONS
is reached, only users with the RESTRICTED SESSION
privilege can connect to the database. Users who are not able to connect receive a warning message indicating that the system has reached maximum capacity.
A zero value indicates that concurrent usage (session) licensing is not enforced. If you set this parameter to a nonzero number, you might also want to set LICENSE_SESSIONS_WARNING
(see "LICENSE_SESSIONS_WARNING").
Do not enable both concurrent usage licensing and user licensing. Set either LICENSE_MAX_SESSIONS
or LICENSE_MAX_USERS
to zero.
