Is this still the latest schema about which cores/CPUs cost how many
licenses?
IBM's licensing policy is summarized below:
Number of
licenses
Cores required
Hard- n-Way per per
ware refer- "1-way" "1-way"
vendor Server family Chip family ence server(1) server(1)
------ ---------------- -------------- ------ -------- ---------
IBM pSeries POWER4 Core 1 1
POWER5 Core 1 1
OpenPower OpenPower
710 and 720 Core 1 (2)
BladeCenter JS21 PowerPC Core 1 (2)
iSeries All Core 1 1
zSeries (Linux) All Core 1 1
------ ---------------- -------------- ------ -------- ---------
Sun SunFire UltraSparc III Chip 1 1
UltraSparc IV Chip 2 2
UltraSparc IV+ Chip 2 2
SunFire T Series UltraSparc T1 Chip 4 2
UltraSparc T1 Chip 6 2
UltraSparc T1 Chip 8 3
------ ---------------- -------------- ------ -------- ---------
HP HP 9000 PA RISC 8700 Chip 1 1
PA RISC 8800 Chip 2 2
PA RISC 8900 Chip 2 2
HP Integrity Itanium 2 Chip 1 1
------ ---------------- -------------- ------ -------- ---------
Intel Multiple Single Core Chip 1 1
or server Dual Core Chip 2 1
AMD families(3)
1
Number of cores included in the vendor definition of a 1-way server
2
OpenPower 710 and 720 servers, and the PowerPC 970 chip on BladeCenter
JS21 servers, require only one license for each dual-core chip.
3
Intel and AMD servers include, but are not limited to, the IBM
xSeries(r), Dell PowerEdge, HP ProLiant, and SunFire x64 servers.

And what about pSeries with p5 CPUs where you can switch the SMT-feature
on and off (which is the equivalent to ht in Intel-CPus). Does my
licensing change if I change the configuration?
