License type |
The kind of software license to which this points rule set may be applied. In general, each points rule may apply only to the one type of license (although you may link one rule set to as many licenses of the same type as you like). One exception is that the Oracle Processor points rule set may be used with both Oracle Processor licenses and Oracle Named User Plus licenses. Tip: License types may be displayed in this list for which you need the
FlexNet Manager for Datacenters option. Although you can see such items here, you can only
create the matching license when the corresponding option is licensed and installed.
