| Minimum NUPs | 5 | False | If licensed by Named User Plus \(NUP\), then both Oracle Database Standard Edition and Oracle Database Standard Edition One require a minimum of five NUP licenses each. | Named User Plus | Oracle |
| Minimum NUPs for WebLogic on-premise deployments | 10 | False | The minimum number of users required to be licensed for programs accessing a processor. This attribute is used for reconciling entitlements with an Oracle NUP license metric for Oracle WebLogic Standard and WebLogic Enterprise deployed on-premise. For WebLogic Standard, the attribute counts occupied sockets and for WebLogic Enterprise, the attribute counts processor cores. | Named User Plus | Oracle |
| Maximum number of sockets per server | 2 | False | Oracle Database Standard Edition, Oracle Database Standard Edition One and Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 may only be licensed on servers that have a value less than the maximum number of sockets. | Named User Plus | Oracle |
| Minimum users per processor | 25 | False | The minimum number of users allowed to access a physical processor. This metric attribute is applicable for both on-premise and Oracle Authorized Cloud Environments such as Microsoft Azure and AWS. | Named User Plus | Oracle |
| Minimum NUPs on cloud | 10 | False | If licensed by NUP, Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 requires a minimum of 10 NUP licenses per 8 vCPUs on Oracle Authorized Cloud Environments such as Microsoft Azure and AWS. | Named User Plus | Oracle |
| Maximum size of instance on cloud | 8 | False | Oracle Database Standard Edition, Oracle Database Standard Edition One and Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 have maximum limits on the size of the instances to which they’re deployed on Oracle Authorized Cloud Environments such as Microsoft Azure and AWS. Oracle Database Enterprise Edition doesn’t have any maximum limits on the size of the instances to which it’s deployed to on Oracle Authorized Cloud Environments such as Microsoft Azure and AWS. | Named User Plus | Oracle |

This attribute is used for reconciling entitlements with an Oracle NUP license metric for Oracle WebLogic Standard and WebLogic Enterprise on Oracle Authorized Cloud Environments such as AWS or Azure Cloud. For the Standard edition, a minimum of 10 NUP licenses are required per 8 vCPUs on either AWS or Azure Cloud. For the Enterprise edition, if hyper-threading is enabled then 10 NUP licenses are required per 2 vCPUs, and if hyper-threading is not enabled then 10 NUP licenses are required per vCPU. | Named User Plus | Oracle |
| Minimum NUPs per server | 10 | False | If licensed by NUP, Oracle Database Standard Edition 2 requires a minimum of 10 NUP licenses per server. | Named User Plus | Oracle |
