Hello,
I'm looking into the purchase of user CAL's for our 2008 R2 environment. I would buy 2012 CALs as it seems silly to buy old stuff. I have a couple of questions:
- Can I use 2012 CAL's in our current 2008 R2 environment? (2008 R2 terminal servers and license server)
It seems that this is possible (link) - will there be a new version of the CAL's with server 2012 R2 (as happened with 2008 and 2008 R2?). If so, will I be able to upgrade my current 2012 CAL's?
- I know that with 2008 R2 cals and license server, there is no hard enforcing of the user CALs limit (unlike device CALs). Will this be the same in a 2012 environment? This is very useful for implementing an environment where the amount of unique users is
not initially known.
Thank you!
