Licensing isn't a problem.  The license is at 10 seats and no more than
5 or 6 are running at any given time.  It's running on windows 2000 sp4.

Subject: RE: [U2] udt problem

I was informed recently that launching a phantom doesn't necessarily
circumvent the license limitation, as *some types* of phantom processes
still consume a seat.  This was done because some creative developers
were writing to text files with browsers or other front ends, then using
a phantom to bring all the data into the DB.  IBM got wise to this
'abuse' and began charging for *some types* (their words) of phantom
processes.  I haven't seen were 'some types' is defined, but I expect
this is controlled in the UV engine and you will encounter an *issue*
that may kick out some other [erroneously reported] error if this type
of READSEQ processing is attempted.

I'd love to be wrong.  I hope someone else can be more specific about
the types of phantoms that consume a seat.  Since you're discussing a
udt script on the local machine are you by chance on a  windows
platform, and possibly with few licenses to work with?

Device License just means you can have more than one session per DEVICE
- that is, IP 192.168.0.100 can open 4 sessions to UniData, but is only
1 device, so it uses 1 seat.  Non-Device licensing would consume 4
seats. So unchecked means every time you start a connection, you eat a
seat.
