Allocate DevOps Code ClearCase MultiSite licenses
Each user of a replicated VOB must acquire both a DevOps Code ClearCase® license and DevOps Code ClearCase MultiSite license from the same license server host. To plan your DevOps Code ClearCase MultiSite licenses, analyze each current DevOps Code ClearCase license server host.
- If some or all client hosts that use a particular license server host access replicated VOBs, you must install DevOps Code ClearCase MultiSite licenses on that license server.
- If all users on those client hosts access replicated VOBs, install the same number of DevOps Code ClearCase MultiSite licenses as DevOps Code ClearCase licenses.
- If some users access standard (unreplicated) VOBs only, you can install a smaller number of DevOps Code ClearCase MultiSite licenses.
For example, a company has two sites, with 20 developers at site
A and 5 developers at site B. The company has three VOBs at site A;
two of them are replicated to site B and one is not be replicated.
Five developers at site A access only the unreplicated VOB, and the
remaining 15 work in all VOBs. Therefore, the company must purchase
the following numbers of licenses:
| Site | DevOps Code ClearCase licenses | DevOps Code ClearCase MultiSite licenses |
|---|---|---|
| A | 20 | 15 |
| B | 5 | 5 |
Note: This example assumes that you purchase a DevOps Code ClearCase license
for each developer. If you have fewer DevOps Code ClearCase licenses
than developers, you can purchase a proportionate number of DevOps Code ClearCase
MultiSite licenses.
For example, if site B purchased three DevOps Code ClearCase licenses,
it would also purchase three DevOps Code ClearCase
MultiSite licenses.
