LISENSI http://www.orafaq.com/wiki/Oracle_Licensing

• "right to use" (RTU) the software and not the software itself.

• Oracle doesn't use software keys. You can just install the software and use it. It is up to you and your consciences to license the software before using it.

• Licenses are not tied to the product version. For example, an Enterprise Edition database license is equally valid for Oracle 9i, Oracle 10g or Oracle 11g.

Users http://www.orafaq.com/wiki/Oracle_Licensing

• Pay per user, however user is defined as any end-node that receives data from or creates data for that Oracle DB including human users. The classic case would be a grocery store system that is taking data from refrigerator thermometers and point of sale systems; in one case a user is a thermometer and in another case the user is the check out clerk, or in the case of newer self-check out terminals it would be the customer.

The second host has two eight core CPUs using soft partitioning with Oracle VM installed, hosting 8 guests running 11G. The third host has two eight core CPUs using hard partitioning with Oracle VM installed, hosting 8 guests. Only one of the guests is running 11G.
