A.    Terms Related to the JCC LogMiner Loader software (“Software” or “Loader”)

YOU MAY NOT USE THE JCC LOGMINER LOADER SOFTWARE IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS.

The Software or Loader programs and related explanatory materials are also referred to as “the software” or “the Loader”. If you do not accept or agree with these terms, you may not install or use the JCC LogMiner Loader software and must delete the license key, if one has been provided to you.

Except as provided in this Policy, no license under any patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, or any other intellectual property rights, express or implied are granted by JCC to you under this Policy.

By using the JCC LogMiner Loader software you agree to be bound by the terms of this Policy.

DEFINITIONS:

Licensed User or Licensee means (i) if Licensee is an individual, solely Licensee; (ii) if Licensee is a legal entity, any employee, independent contractor, third-party and other temporary worker authorized by Licensee to use the software while performing duties within the scope of their employment or assignment.

License Key is the key provided to Licensee for the Loader software.

Source Database means the database where data changes occur that are processed by the LogMiner.  Source databases is the plural.

Units are the number of CPU cores that access the source database(s). The unit count is not the count of CPU cores of computers running the Loader, but the total count of the CPU cores among all computers accessing the source database. If the computer is providing virtual computer resources, the number of units is the number of “virtual” cores presented to OpenVMS. If there is a combination of resources that access the Source database(s), the total will be the number of license units required.

Licensed Units is the number of for which a license has been purchased by Licensee and granted by JCC. The Licensee is responsible for accurately reporting to JCC the number of Licensed Units required at any time.

The Software refers to the JCC LogMiner Loader which publishes changes made to a source database to one or more targets. The source database must be one that utilizes Oracle Rdb, as the Loader relies on Oracle Rdb’s After Image Journaling (AIJ) and LogMiner to provide the updates.

Target is the software, whether database or other, that receives the JCC LogMiner Loader output. The Loader can publish the data changes made to the Source Database to a number of targets.

Documentation, as referenced here, refers to the documentation provided with the Loader product, including the document that is updated with each major release and the release notes that accompany each release.

Affiliate means an entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with a party, where “control” means the direct or indirect holding of more than 50% of equity ownership or voting rights.

1.    ESTABLISHING THE NUMBER OF LICENSED UNITS

You are responsible for working with JCC to establish the initial number of Units required on the license. Additionally, you shall notify JCC when hardware and software configurations increase the number of Units that access the Source Database or add Source Databases that are accessed by additional units regardless of whether Support is active or not.

If an audit reveals that the number of Units accessing the source database is greater than the number of Licensed Units paid by you, you shall be invoiced for such underpaid fees based upon JCC current rate per Unit in effect at the time the audit is completed with late fees applied. You shall pay JCC an additional fee of 25% of the applicable unpaid fee disclosed by the audit.
