An apparatus, program product and method track concurrent uses of a computer
program
across a plurality of logical partitions in a logically partitioned computer, such
that a decision as to whether to grant or deny a request to use the computer program
in a particular logical partition may be made based upon whether the requested
use, coupled with other uses in other logical partitions in the computer, would
violate a concurrent use software license associated with the computer program.
As such, the license restrictions of a concurrent use software license can be enforced
on a logically partitioned computer regardless of the particular logical partitions
within which a computer program executes.
