Dell Windows Server 2022 Standard Add License 16-Core

Windows Server 2022 Standard — Dell Windows Server 2022 Standard Add License 16-Core

The Windows Server 2022 Standard add licence from Dell is a 16-core additional licence for South African businesses running Dell PowerEdge servers that exceed the core count covered by a base Windows Server 2022 Standard licence. It ensures full legal compliance for high-core-count server deployments.

Understanding Windows Server Core Licensing

Windows Server 2022 Standard is licensed on a per-core basis, with a minimum of 16 cores covered per licence. Servers with more than 16 physical cores require additional core licences to maintain compliance. This Windows Server 2022 Standard add licence covers an additional 16 cores. It is the correct purchase for servers with processors such as the Xeon Silver 4314 when adding a second socket. South African businesses subject to software audits must ensure all servers are correctly licenced to avoid compliance penalties.

Virtualisation Rights Included

Windows Server 2022 Standard includes the right to run up to two Hyper-V virtual machine instances per licenced server, in addition to the physical host OS. This makes it cost-effective for small to medium deployments with only a few VMs per server. For higher VM density, the Datacenter edition provides unlimited virtualisation rights. Additionally, this licence includes Windows Server features such as Storage Spaces Direct and enhanced Windows Defender Credential Guard security.
