Oracle RAC

Multiple instances can have different values.

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 this limit specified by LICENSE_SESSIONS_WARNING is reached, additional users can connect, but Oracle writes a message in the alert log for each new connection. Users with RESTRICTED SESSION privilege who connect after the limit is reached receive a warning message stating that the system is nearing its maximum capacity.

If this parameter is set to zero, no warning is given as you approach the concurrent usage (session) limit. If you set this parameter to a nonzero number, you should also set LICENSE_MAX_SESSIONS (see "LICENSE_MAX_SESSIONS").
