A BP is quoting me $16K for 5761-WDS ( the ILE compilers ) on the JS12 blade

user and you have to license it for 10 users.

is this true?


Steve, I get completely lost as soon as the licensing and marketing
people get involved. On the one hand, IBM is busily telling everyone
that for a P05 the minimum user count is one, but yet the same company
has said that the JS12 is a P05 machine, but you must buy software in
groups of 10.

thanks for the reply Joe.

I think I have it resolved. only have to get one instance. The
reason I was alarmed was because another BP had told me the same thing
concerning the 10 user minimum on the JS12.

here is a good description of the tool and compiler product line under v6r1
