issue of license - productive and non-productive - what is average?

Me again,

in my company, we have a pool of users Oracle we use in production. It's 10 Oracle users under license.

Right now, on my server, I have 9 Oracle users running (each of them is connected to the application). In the next week, I would create 2 users Oracle. My Oracle user pool is 10 so I need a more additional user. After a short discussion with my boss we have decided to cut an existing user and start a new.

In this case on my server will be 11 users:

10 in production (related to applications)
1 with the data of production but turned off (stored on the server for backup)

In this case... Should I buy next user Oracle?


What is the average productive and non productive user in ORACLE? Where can I find detailed information.


p.s. English sf... I hope that its clear...

Database licensing is per user / device OR per processor. It is not by the number of accounts created in the database.

There is no such thing as "productive and non-productive." You could Test/development and Production. Any Test/development environment that takes care of the Production must also be dismissed.
