can someone tell me the answer to this scenerio? ms license questions

hello my dear friends!
i'm am beyond confused and have looked all over the internet for an answer to this but can't find one anywhere.   i need to know if i'm needing more licenses for the following scenerio of hardware and software....  
1 physical server box with windows server 2012 r2 installed.  it's running as a full dc with ad, dns, dhcp, and any other primary services i can think of.  it's running great!  i have 20 users connected to it as the dc and they share files and print...it's a huge giant party.
available according to ms:  "2 hyper-v licenses"
so here comes the confusion....
say i want to get a copy of sql, but ms says sql doesn't play well on the same box with an ad, domain controller.... so they suggest hyper-v since there is plenty of ram and hard drive and cpu to go around.
question 1.  do i need to purchase another license of server 2012 r2 to install server 2012 r2 into the 1st hyper-v slot on my server 2012 r2 physical box?
question 2.  do i need to purchase 20 additional user cals for the hyper-v install of server 2012 r2 on my phyical install of server 2012 r2 since it will be running sql (obviously i have to purchase sql cals, that part i get) on a different instance of server 2012 r2?
this setup is specific enough, but i can't fathom why it's so hard to find an answer on the web as i'm sure many people use a hyper-v slot for stuff.
i appreciate this community so much for it's sharing and knowledgeable people!!!!

question 1:  no, you don't need another server license.  2012r2 server allows you to install it on two vm's on the same physical host.  normally you would use the free hyper-v 2012r2 server product to be your host and install your two guests vm's on that.  you can use the full gui server 2012 product as your host but if you use it for anything besides hyper-v, you consume one of your two licenses and can only run one server 2012 guest vm without purchasing additional server licenses.  that said, it's not recommended to install the hyper-v role on a host doing anything else, especially a domain controller.
if i was in your situation and didn't want to rebuild the existing host, i'd install the hyper-v role, spin up a 2012r2 vm and move the services you currently have on the host to the vm and then remove it from the host so it only has the hyper-v role on it then spin up the 2nd vm for sql.
question 2:  no need for additional server cals.  the cal licenses you to use all windows server services you have assuming the cal is for the same version or lower.  sql licensing is separate as you mentioned.
your license should match the number of users on your system, so you may need to request a new license.

If you had done a web search with the question you entered here, you would have found multiple sites that give you the instructions InDesign, despite the Cloud in Creative Cloud is installed an run locally. The license is checked via web connection about once a month so that’s the only time you need to be online.You can install it on as many machines as you want but only two can be activated concurrently. Hyper -V is the virtualisation software layer used to run VM’s and SCVMM is the central management server to manage multiple Hyper-V servers. We currently have all our machines still on Windows XP and have only just upgraded some with Office 2007.


Budget dollars just have been too cost prohibitive to upgrade all 1,000 of our workstations. At some point due to licensing and availability we will be forced to upgrade. 


The one thing I’ve noticed difficulty with right off the bat has been the ability to connect via RDP to a Windows Server 2008 box. Without some registry hacks/mods in XP this can be problematic if the server is set to the newest (and more secure) RDP protocol. Windows 7 doesn’t have this issue. i think it’s too early to think about h.266.

in any case if it will be supported then you need new hardware. For anyone having similar problems, I have solved my issue. It was several-fold.


* As Darren suggested and Paul backed up, the Max..Size properties in the configuration needed to be enlarged. The SvcTraceViewer utility helped in determining this, but it still does not always give the most helpful error messages.
* It also appears that when the Service Reference is updated on the client side, the configuration will sometimes not update properly (e.g. Changing config values on the server will not always properly update on the client. I had to go in and change the Max..Size properties multiple times on both the client and server sides in the course of my debugging)
* For a DataTable to be serializable, it needs to be given a name. The default constructor does not give the table a name, so:



```
return new DataTable();

```

will not be serializable, while:



```
return new DataTable("someName");

```

will name the table whatever is passed as the parameter. 


Note that a table can be given a name at any time by assigning a string to the `TableName` property of the DataTable.



```
var table = new DataTable();
table.TableName = "someName";

```


Hopefully that will help someone. Hello Nanda, Basically you need to include the network drivers and the storage drivers.

+ You can find the drivers from Manufacturer site where you can filter the Category and download –

You are correct that you can get your Team license history, but it is in bulk--not separated by user. This is a known current limitation of this API; it can only read the owning organization but not the individual member. It is on our road map to include all of this information in the API, but we don't have an ETA at this time.

Further, there is also a current limitation on the License History page that does not allow Teams to download a CSV report. At this time, that is only something that Enterprise customers can do.

There is work being done on the License History page to be more useful to all users, so I would expect some kind of update in the coming months, but cannot verify if CSV export is part of that work (for Teams and Individuals). 

I would recommend that if departmental control is a requirement, that you seriously consider upgrading to a Stock Enterprise offer. In addition to more granular license history (again, only visible in the CSV or License History page), it can allow you to set separate quotas per team, assign permissions (e.g., allow group A to license everything and group B to only license images), and require additional metadata when licensing the asset, such as client name/PO number/etc.

If you'd like to discuss your use case in more depth, feel free to drop us a line at [stockapis@adobe.com](mailto:stockapis@adobe.com).

Thanks!

Christopher i believe, and might double check this w support/sales engineers - in the situation you describe the vms would continue to functions/run (no outage of them executing/reading/writing to disk) however the cluster’s resiliency would stay critical (it doesn’t have enough pool capacity to write 2nd copies) until the storage heavy node is back up (i.e. couldn’t loose any additional disk/nodes/blocks).this is one of the reasons why storage-heavy nodes need to be added to a cluster in pairs, so storage un-balances during ha events don’t end up causing, “sufficient\_disk\_space\_check” warnings.note that the number of storage heavy nodes may need to be more if you’re using rf=3https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/kbs/details?targetid=ka0600000008gvycai
