Olá,
tenho dúvidas quanto ao licenciamento da Microsoft.
Por exemplo: Atualmente tenho servidores com Win 2008 Server R2 Standard Edition, Win 2012 Server Standard Edition R2 e quero atualizar os sistemas comprando licença MS Windows 2016 Server Stadard Edition.
O Windows 2016 Server Standard Edition necessita cobrir 8 cores (1 processador físico) com 2 licenças para cada core. Se quero utilizar o xenserver, o esquema é o mesmo? se eu quiser duas máquinas virtuais com win 2016 server standard edition seria 4 licenças
por core?
A regra de licenciamento conforme descrito no Windows 2016 Server Guide, serve tanto para o xenserver quanto para o hyper-v como hypervisor?
Essa minha interpretação veio do Windows 2016 Server Guide:
"All physical cores on the server must be licensed, subject to a minimum of 8 core licenses per physical processor and a
minimum of 16 core licenses per server.
3 Windows Server Standard edition permits use of one running instance of the server software in the physical OSE on the
licensed server (in addition to two virtual OSEs), if the physical OSE is used solely to host and manage the virtual OSEs.
Standard edition
– When all physical cores on the server are licensed, Windows Server Standard edition provides rights
to use two Operating System Environments (OSEs) or Hyper-V containers and unlimited Windows Server containers on
the licensed server.
***** For example, a 2-processor server with 8 cores per processor requires 16 core licenses (in other words, one 16-pack of
core licenses or eight 2-packs of core licenses) and gives rights to two OSEs or two Hyper-V containers. In the case of
this example, for each additional two OSEs or two Hyper-V containers the customer wishes to use, an additional 16
core licenses must be assigned to the server. "
