This is a very interesting thread for
us :)
How about desktop versions of Windows?
Is there a volume license that can be used with the IaaS?

Site/Volume licensing works too.
The KMS is there to enable/enforce the local
activiation/licensing.
The details of any licenses are also affected by the
product sku’s that are involved.

See http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/existing-customers/product-activation-faq.aspx
Looks like KMS would be the appropriate means; your MSFT
reseller would sell you a KMS license key to use for the
appropriate pool of server / app instances, then it is
loaded into the KMS server, which then activates the
instantiated systems. I checked with MSFT Licensing, the
rep said there is no limit on number of uses of a KMS
license key, just an aggregate activation threshold. See
further http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/dd197314.aspx
for more details.
We don’t use KMS here, so don’t know about the hairy
details, sorry...
Best,
Will

Ok,
I am no MS licensing expert, however. Here is my
understanding of it.
If you are using a windows vm on a hypervisor other than
windows server with the Hyper-V role enabled you need to
license per vm.
If you are using windows server with Hyper-V enable you
can license at the hypervisor/server rather than at the vm
level.
This does not include Hyper-V server, which only requires
licensing of the windows guests.

Hi,
I wonder how the Windows Licensing would work in
OpenStack. Lets say I
have a Windows Image which I have already activated. Now
if I launch N
instances of this image, what are the SO licensing
implications? Will I
have to license/re-activate on each of the instances
after they boot up?
If you use XenServer or KVM, I believe so, yes. I've heard
that if you
use ESXi you can get some sort of license for all Windows
images on a
host. Not sure of the details of this, though, I've just
heard it
through the IT grapevine...
Best,

p.s. If you find out any more solid info, please do post
back :)
