Licensing query...

[Mr_Jiminy]

Because the new change to MS licensing with 2012; covering two processors... Can I install 2012 on two servers, both operating with one processor?

Nope

 

To run an instance of Windows Server software on your server, you must license every processor on the server. Each

Windows Server license covers up to two physical processors on a single server

Thought it would be a no-no.
