Oracle Licensing Issues When Using Zerto
This section serves solely as recommendations and does not represent any legally binding certification of compliance for Oracle licensing. For further clarification, Zerto recommends that you contact your Oracle licensing manager or utilize a third party Oracle licensing specialist.
The basic tenet of an Oracle Licensing Service Agreement (OLSA) is that Oracle databases need to be licensed where installed and/or running, not where they can run. This phrasing can cause ambiguity when configuring virtualization and disaster recovery for virtualized Oracle databases.

Note:
|
The storage on which an Oracle database VM runs, or the hypervisor hosts that have access, have no bearing on the OLSA and so shared storage configurations are not factors that need to be configured in the OLSA. |
