82.0. "Licensing as a Client?" by DWOVAX::LICAUSE (Al Licause) Thu Mar 22 1990 16:43

    This note is addressed at either product managment or product marketing
    management, unless of course, anyone else would care to take a wack at
    it.
    
    What I'd like to know is, if DECmcc is run in a client/server mode,
    such that it is run on a 6xxx system and accessed via workstation
    servers, then are there any implications around licensing of the
    product other than the size of the client system?
    
    Will the licensing vary or is it capable of being varied using LMF
    or anyother mechanism, such that the license price may vary based
    on the number of servers that may use same concurrently?
    
    Thanks in advance,
    Al

82.1MCC not a Client/ServerCUSPID::MCCABEIf Murphy's Law can go wrong .. Tue Mar 27 1990 10:368
    MCC is not build in accordance with a client/server model.  Each
    MCC invocation creates a process image into which all needed components
    are mapped.  No network objects, IPC mechnisms etc exist.
    
    In the case you describe the remote user would access MCC via a
    RTEM (sethost).
