Inputs:
Host specification - since the Windows Server 2022 Datacenter and Standard editions are licensed by
physical core, this tool requires information about the number of servers/hosts, the number of CPUs per
server, and the number of cores per CPU.
Max # of OSEs/VMs per host - the maximum number of Operating System Environments (OSEs) that
will be running
on one server. Note that License Mobility across Server Farms is not available for Windows
Server; therefore, each of the hosts must be licensed for the maximum load in an environment where
OSEs/VMs are expected to move between hosts on a regular basis.
If you need to calculate the number of
Standard Edition licenses for such environment, adjust this value accordingly.
