How many CAL's do I have in my domain?
How is Licensing managed today in an AD domain? The current setup that we have is around 10 DC's, 4 Terminal Servers and multiple license servers??? How do I determine how many CAL's I have already purchased vs how many I need to purchase to be current? When I go to the most current DC and click on Admin Tools, Licensing, Prodcuts View it reports:
Windows Server Per Device or Per User Purchased-10499 Per Server Purchased-35 Per Server Reached-3
When I click on another server in the same domain, Admin Tools, Licensing, Prodcuts View it reports:
Windows Server Per Device or Per User Purchased-728 Per Server Purchased-32012 Per Server Reached-311
What if any of this information is correct? Can I even use this licensing tool to determine my current # of CAL's? Is there another tool I can use that will more accurately compute the number for me?
Background Information on my domain-10 DC's, 10 Sites, Around 600 Users, 700 XP Workstations, Multiple Server 2003 and Server 2008 Servers
I am at a complete loss on which Licensing Server I should go by. How do I determine which is the "MAIN" license server, how many license servers do I have in my domain? How many CAL's?
Thanks in advance,
