Yesterday had an part of eSeminars series talking about FDS, and Kevin Y. and Allen (presenter) explain a lot about pricing license, and all several questions, I guess if you should participate it will be very helpfull for all your several questions concerns.

            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. ;-)

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?
