Rick, 1) Correct, FDS and CF can be on a separate machines.
2) I am not a legal expert, and have not discussed this with our licensing people, but it seems to me that if you install FDS and instruct the OS to run it on a single CPU (instead of both) then you should be ok. As per the license, "Adobe grants Licensee a license to install and use such unique application and the Adobe Flex Data Services Express Software as Production Software on a Per-CPU basis". What is "Per-CPU basis"? As per the license, "The total number of CPUs on the Computers used to operate the Software may not exceed the licensed quantity of CPUs. For purposes of this definition, all CPUs on a Computer on which the Software is installed shall be deemed to operate the Software unless Customer configures that Computer (using a reliable and verifiable means of hardware or software partitioning) such that the total number of CPUs that actually operate the Software is less than the total number on that Computer." So, as long as you ensure that FDS runs on a single CPU you should be fine. But perhaps you should check with a lawyer. ;-) --- Ben -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rick Root Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2006 8:56 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Flex academic/volune licensing Matt Chotin wrote: > > Dave Gruber from Adobe tried to respond but I haven't seen his post > come through so let me re-post it. Thanks Matt, I got his response off list yesterday and responded. Unfortunately, FDS Express doesn't work for us cuz our machine has two CPUs. Unless FDS Express can be configured to only use one CPU even though it is installed on a 2 CPU machine. That's not mentioned in the FDS Express FAQ so I doubt it. I suppose my other option would be to buy a separate, single CPU server to run FDS Express on. FDS doesn't have to be on the same machine as Coldfusion, right?
