Online Extended Edition for Linux
I'm preparing a quote for a customer under Passport Advantage. They want a price for Online 5. The cost for 25 users is about '15k (part number D6DHNLL). But there is an "Online extended edition for Linux" (D51ZILL) at one-thord of the price. Sounds ideal, as my client wants to move to Linux. Does anyone know what this product is? Is it a special promotion for Linux? if so, it's not mentioned on the website. thanks Neil

It has some limitations of 5.10 removed. Most notably the 2GB limitation of chunk size. Is it available in Linux on an unlimited user license basis?
No, it's all per session, according to PA. Well, according to my interpretation of PA to be precise. But it's available on Linux for 25 users at '4275, and all other platforms for '14,975. I wonder why IBM aren't making a fuss about this? Incidentally, DB2 Express for the same number of users is '2,550 ...
