Informix Workgroup & LPAR's
Posted in 2008
Topics: Licensing & Editions
I have a question. I have a client who wants to use Informix 11.50 Workgroup Edition with 3 LPAR's with 4 cpu's, 2 cpu's and 2 cpu's on the LPAR's (All below the limit of 4 CPU's for workgroup). Is it supported? Is anyone using this type of configuration? I did see under the document "Compare the Informix Dynamic Server Version 11 editions" that under the option "Officially eligible for sub-capacity licensing (such as logical partition [LPAR] and dynamic logical partition [DLPAR])" that for workgroup the answer is "No". Is that correct? Thanks, Jeff Jeffrey J.

IB that sub-capacity licensing is only available on the Enterprise edition at present.

Yes, of course it is correct. Only option of installing IDS on LPAR/DLPAR is Enterprise Edition.
