Hi,

I have one small confusion about server and enterprise edition.
is 7.5X2 version server or enterprise? What does server and enterprise edition mean?

If enterprise edition, then can we deactivate the parallel job working? mean I need only server job.

Thanks in advance
Venkat.

At a high level, Server means Server and Enterprise means both Server and Parallel. 7.5x2 is 'enterprise' as it only exists to allow PX jobs to run on Windows in the 7.x world.

Yes. If my understanding is right. You need licence for only either Server or Parallel. If dont want parallel jobs , then you can get only server job working from IBM. In our last project we got only server working.Though you can see parallel options, they will be disabled.

Is that you need?

If you only need Server jobs then you are wasting a whole lotta money if you buy the Enterprise Edition.
