- Statement
- IBM Db2 12.1 (Db2 Operator V2): without a mounted production licence the operator annotates Db2 OLTP instances as Community Edition (metric FREE) and Db2 Warehouse as Trial; when a production licence key is mounted the client must add all four annotations (productID, productName, productMetric, productChargedContainers) matching the purchased edition, because IBM License Service reports usage from them.
