Can you provide a reliable resource? Below is a consolidated list of SQL Server links to save you time when you need to download a product. The Standard edition is the same, but there are some limits of what can be used. Just read up on the differences so if you are developing for Standard you don’t use features only in Enterprise version. I tried Developer and its Enterprise after completion, uninstalled it, and tried Evaluation, and it is also Enterprise.

Beware, auditors will not accept an EE thats supposed to be covered by a DE license regardless of how you use it. Rami — yes, but typically developers need more than just SQL Server. They usually need things like Visual Studio.

My boss purchased two licenses as the server has four cores. Not a dumb question at all! Hi, so scenario. But we would like to run backups from the secondary servers. Paul — what failover method are you using, failover clustering, database mirroring, Always On Availability Group, etc?

I have machine with 4 cores. Do I have to take 4 licenses license per core or is there any other licensing mechanism as well? Then that means just 1 license is required, which makes more sense. Maybe they misunderstood…. On page 11, it says that I can run unlimited VMs up to 1 per core in the host as long as I license every single core in my farm.

Am I reading this correctly? Is this a fight worth having, or am I reading it wrong and I should give in to buying SA? Perhaps my comment is slightly outdated, but HT creates extra physical threads, which results to a necessity buying a license for 16 cores instead of 8.

Steve — for licensing questions, check out the questions link in the post. That way you can get exact confirmation from the folks who really know. Silly question I guess, but if I use a 2-core license on a 4-core system, will it work by using just 2 cores or will it not work at all? Right — but in this case single core system the no of licenses is greater. My question is regarding when no of cores are greater will it 1 work using the cores it is licensed for 2 work using all cores or 3 not work at all.

This is going to sound odd, but have you actually installed SQL Server, run through the setup process? I knew I was sounding odd. Yes, of course, I have installed SQL.. I was just wondering that when you enter the license key during setup, would it check the number of cores, and allow you to proceed only if you have the same number of cores that you are licensed for.. Do I need 2 additional CALs if server is subscriber for 2 different publishers?

I have two questions, we had some ops people install SQL Server Standard on what are our developer and test servers.

The other one with SQL Developer now being free what has changed in all this? A question on licensing test environment. It can be covered by MSDN license if we want to, but what if we have an enterprise agreement? Does that exempt us from being required to license the SQL test server? Or does this entirely depend on what the agreement states? In , as Database Mirroring is removed, would you happen to know if there a hard limit on the number of Basic Availability Groups we can have?

And in terms of licensing, if we only have 1 server accessing the database and all the users if they need to use the application have to RDP into the server to use the application, would that classify as 1 CAL then? Nikhil — first, about the CAL, no. Is it 10, , 1,, or 10,?

So that would be 8 Basic Availability Groups in total? In addition, If we were to purchase Standard with SA, and lets say 1 of those 8 BAG has a failure and has to failover to the second server, does that mean all of them have to move to the second server or failing over just 1 to the second server is fine and covered under licensing? Database mirroring is NOT removed in The specific version of SQL Server has not been determined.

For the Ozar community…having trouble getting this nailed down by MS or Software One, our licensing vendor. We have two VM Hosts. Non are Readable.. The Issue: if we have a failover event…or we want to apply patching say add an SP. Back in the day, there was a day grace period to get Services back to the primary in the event of a failure.

What I want to know is if there is a grace period to get the primary active again. All or nothing issues…. They do this through a single user account, and there could be a varying number of employees sharing that account, depending on the severity of the issue.

We have User CALs for all of our employees that use the system for regular production use. Do I need User CALs for the currently unknown number of vendor employees that may log in to our system for support purposes? Hope that helps! This is an awesome thread for these questions. For example, the SQL server instance would service a web application we are developing and would be accessed by a service account for the web app, and by each developer as they test locally.

Each developer is already accessing multiple other SQL Server instances that are fully licensed, so I assume they have whatever client licenses they need. Thank you for any light you can shed! MSDN licenses are usually only for the person who has the subscription. But if you have an dual core server, you could install as many SQL instances on it as you want — but they will fight for the spare CPU-power and maybe RAM , so that the server will be very slow.

When your company is so small, that you believe, that a dual core server could handle all the load of multiple applications e. Thomas — the minimum is 4 cores of licensing. Microsoft sells 2-packs, but the minimum licensing requirement for a server is two 2-packs. We have a couple of SQL development environments that use production data for testing and development against and I am trying to understand if we could use MSDN licenses more effectively. It might be more cost effective to use MSDN licenses for that many people rather than using production licenses?

That way we can do multiple dev environments with production data but not have to incur the cost of multiple production sql licenses? Does this make sense? Is this permissible? Corey — you can totally use production data for development. Let me clarify myself because I may be wrong. I thought I had read that you can only have development data on the Developer Editions. If I am not correct on that, then that may be our issue but what I am trying to advise our company on is the proper and most cost effective license scenario so we can have development environments properly licensed but not paying the SQL Server license costs for each development environment that I believe we currently license at production licenses costs.

That is helpful. But what about multiple development environments. Also, if anyone touches this SQL Developer Edition server for a production purpose, then we would be out of compliance at that point, correct?
