Re: SUSE Enterprise Licensing Question

I have a couple of questions about licensing:

1.If I purchase a 1-year support license/agreement of SUSE Enterprise
after the year I have to purchase another support license/agreement in
order to remain using it legally right?

Yes... but you can purchase a 3 year support agreements instead.

2. Do the software stop working (expire) if I don’t purchase a new
support agreement?

No. But support updates/patches won't be available through easy
online updates.

3.A support agreement should be bought for each server on my company
or 1 agreement apply to all my servers?

In the past one license allowed updates to multiple servers. But I
don't think that works anymore (not sure). Novell (and Red Hat)
may want to investigate a better enterprise/volume plan.

The assumption right now implies that a company will NOT deploy
too many SLES servers. Which I don't think is something to encourage.
Just my opinion.



Thanks in advance!
SUSE ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it rocks too... but you have to FIGHT hard to keep
things the same or make them better. Now's not the time to
sit back and relax... and that time should NEVER
come.
