* This limit on connections applies to all versions and editions of SQL Anywhere target databases and servers.
The actual limit is 101 connections when you count the connection from Foxhound itself. Internal connections
(e.g., connections made by events and web services) are counted in total.
** This limit on physical CPUs does not apply to SQL Anywhere version 5.5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 target databases and servers.
Also, it applies to the number of physical processors as given by the NumPhysicalProcessorsUsed server property,
not the number of logical processors shown by "Using n CPUs" value in the Foxhound Database Monitor.
For example, a single Intel Pentium 4 processor counts as 1 physical processor even
though the separate HyperThreading units may show up as "Using 2 CPUs". Similarly, a single Intel Core2 Quad
processor also counts as only 1 physical processor even though it may show up as "Using 4 CPUs".
*** This restriction on SQL Anywhere editions does not apply to SQL Anywhere target databases and servers earlier than version 11.0.1,
which is when SQL Anywhere introduced the notion of different editions.
**** This limit on the number of monitor sessions does not apply to the Foxhound Evaluation edition because that edition
may be used to fully test and evaluate Foxhound for a limited time before the Extended edition is installed.
***** For all Foxhound editions except the Basic edition, up to 10 separate copies of the Foxhound database may be
created, and these separate copies may be started at the same time using separate SQL Anywhere servers running on the same
physical computer or on separate computers on the same local network. The following runtime server names are allowed:
foxhound1 (the default) and foxhound1b through foxhound1j.
****** This limit on the number of Foxhound copies does not apply to the Foxhound Evaluation edition because that edition
may be used to fully test and evaluate Foxhound for a limited time before the Extended edition is installed.
