Hello all,
This seems like a simple question but I still haven't been able to get an answer from Microsoft Canada. We're looking at buying 75 device cals to connect to a single instance of SQL Server Standard Edition. Our question is on how those licenses are assigned and/or activated.
Do we need to manually do something for each station or is it an automated process done the first time a station connects to the server? We also wat to understand what happens when a workstation dies and is replaced by another one. Do you have to do something on the server to transfer the license to the new station ?
In other words, when using device cals (and/or user cals), do you have to do any type of license management or is it all transparent ?
Its all transparent, you will need to have them if they are checked by *someone*.
