Help with Windows Server 2022 Licenses Requirement!

Hello,
To calculate the number of Windows Server 2022 licenses required for your environment, you need to consider both the physical and virtual machines.
Based on your requirements, here is the breakdown:
1. Active Directory - Since this is a role rather than a physical or virtual machine, you do not need an additional license.
2. Management - Again, this is a role, so no additional license is needed.
3. VMware vCenter - vCenter does not require a separate Windows Server license as it runs on its own operating system.
4. Windows - For the four Windows servers, one license is required per physical server, and if any of these servers are virtualized, additional licenses are needed for each virtual machine. Please note that a Windows Server Standard license allows for two virtual machines or Hyper-V containers when all physical cores are licensed.
5. DHCP - This is a role, so no additional license is needed.
6. Printing Server - Similar to DHCP, this is a role and does not require an additional license.
7. File Servers - For the three file servers, licensing requirements will depend on the number of physical cores and virtual machines.
8. VEEAM (Log backup) - VEEAM itself does not require a separate Windows Server license.
9. App Servers - For the five app servers, again, the licensing requirements will depend on whether they are physical or virtual machines.
To get an accurate estimate, you would need to determine the number of virtual machines and the number of physical cores your environment will have, as these factors are crucial in determining the required licensing.
I hope this helps you get started. Let me know if you have any further questions!
