Gumbo offers two choices for licensing our IBM i software products, system wide licensing and partition licensing. These are mutually exclusive. A system wide license applies to a specific system serial number and processor group and is good for any and all partitions in the system. A partition license applies to a specific system serial number, partition number, and maximum processor capacity, and is not valid for a system that has not been partitioned. For the overwhelming majority of our customers, a system wide license (~ 98%) is the best choice. A partition license (~ 2%) is the best choice in very limited circumstances involving small partitions on large machines.

The system wide license prices for all of our products, with the exception of Report Designer, are tiered based on your system's processor group. You can determine your machine's processor group by running the IBM i Work with License Information (WRKLICINF) command.

The partition only license prices for all of our products, with the exception of Report Designer, are based on the maximum processor capacity configured for the partition (rounded up to the nearest tenth). You can determine your partition's maximum processor capacity by running the IBM i Start System Service Tools (STRSST) command and taking option 5 "Work with system partitions" then option 1 "Display partition information" then option 2 "Display partition processing configuration".

The one time charge includes the first  year of maintenance services. You are purchasing a permanent license to use the software subject to the terms of a license agreement and upgrade policy.

Notes:
 
  1. OTC - One time charge to purchase a license.
  2. Mnt - Annual maintenance fee for years after the first, which is included in the OTC.
  3. The smallest unit of processor capacity is .1 (one tenth). For example, round 1.43 up to 1.5.
  4. Example Gumbo Mail partition only license: 1 partition with 1.43 processors OTC = $1,795 = $670 + 1.5 X $750.
  5. Run CALL PGM(QLZARCAPI) to see MAX PROCESSING CAPACITY: for a partition.
