Plan for the installation procedure.
There is a change to the license quantity used by per CPU and per chip license types. Adaptive Server 15.5 checks out the same number of licenses as the number of cores on the machine (or chips, depending on the license type) regardless of any configuration settings. This behavior is not a change in licensing terms, but instead is a correction from earlier versions of the server, in which if Adaptive Server was licensed per CPU or CPU chip, therequested license quantity was reduced if the max online engines configuration parameter was set to fewer than the number of CPUs on the machine.
