Hi there
Could anyone give and advise regarding licensing?
Here's my escenario:
Puchased a phisycal server with VMWARE ESXI 5.5
1 Windows 2012 STD license
1 Windows 2012 essentials license
40 remote users accesing RDS in Load Balance
My goal:
Use the 2 Windows 2012 STD servers for RDS
Use the Windows Essentials as Active Directory domain controller..
My questions:
1.-Microsoft says it is legal to have 2 OS or instances with the same license on Hyper-V..Does this also apply for VMWARE?
2.- Essentials only supports 25 users, as i will have 40 users authenticating with the AD..will this affect to the users accesing the RDS services on the 2 servers running Windows 2012 STD? Would i require more than 25 CALS for the AD to support my 40 users in the RDS?
3.- Remote Services CALS..As i'm trying to have 2 servers in Load Balance..Who controls the count of CALS in both servers? Should i need to purchase 20 for each one? or 40?
Any help is appreciated.
