FAQs for IBM Compiler Licensing on AIX and Linux on Power

By SI YUAN ZHANG posted Fri March 18, 2022 04:11 AM

  
In past years  we have received quite a few questions regarding the licensing model used by IBM Compilers on AIX and Linux on Power,  such as:
1. I have a valid compiler license and use the compiler on Server A.  My colleague also works on Server A.  Can he/she use the compiler too? 
2. If NO for 1.,  what are my options if several people of my company need to use the compiler.
3. I have a valid compiler license and use the compiler on Server A.  Now I need to use the compiler on Server B.  Do I need a new license?
4. I heard the stand-alone C compiler (XL C for AIX) is no longer offered now.  What are my options for upgrading my XL C for AIX license?
