Windows Server 2008 R2 CALs and license distribution [duplicate]

  • 772

Possible Duplicate:
Can you help me with my software licensing question?

When buying Windows Server 2008 R2 edition, I am offered 5 standard CALs (can be used either device or user based).

So for instance, if I was to buy two Windows 2000 R2 OS, I get a total of 10 CALs.

Can I install all 10 on a licensing manager on one of the two servers? Or do I have to install the 5 CALs on each one?

    AH - 2008 R2 has ni license manager at all except for TS (Terminal Services) which require separate licenses.

    Basically you TRACK licenses in your compliance / IT department. THe old way (paper, integrate into your workflows).
