Hi, If we have Informix license for Solaris IDS and want to move to Linux, is there a policy of 'license exchange', whereby we give back Solaris IDS license and get a Linux license for the same version. I would be pleasantly surprised if we can actually get it.

G'day All, We did the very same thing about 18 months ago - migrated from NCR MP-RAS to Compaq Tru64. There was a small administration fee, from memory approx AU$300.
