I am wondering what's the actual unit/mechanism which consumes one WebServer agent license (e. g. Apache instances).
Answer by Patrick T. ·
Apache consumes one license per parent process.
Thanks Patrick! So in case of prefork MPM we still use only one license, because there is one licnese because there is a parent process. Correct?
This Multi-Processing Module (MPM) implements a non-threaded, pre-forking web server. Each server process may answer incoming requests, and a parent process manages the size of the server pool.https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/prefork.html
Hi Patrick,
Can you have a look at the scenario in this post https://answers.dynatrace.com/questions/139033/how-do-we-count-web-server-agents-in-licensing.html#comment-139037 ?
