I have found many answers to this that kind of skirt around, but nothing cut and dry..
We have a 4 server clustered HyperV 2012 environement that we are currently using for VMs. Within this, there is a desire to create some VDs as well. Licensing should be straight forward, but depending on what you read it really isn't. Assume the devices accessing thes VDs will be Windows machines, but will not have SA. Also assume VDs are 1-1 with users. Multiple users will not access the same VD. VDs will either be running Win 7, 8 or 8.1 (tbd)
What do we need for licensing?
- Do we only need a VDA?
- Or do we need RDS CALs as well?
- Do we need a full Windows license on each of the VD along with the above?
I have read the VDI VDA FAQ, but still find it a little blurred (and it is still only current through Win7 & 2008 R2). Any other help or info is appreciated.
