We're in the process of migrating some of our management systems from 2008 R2 to 2012 R2 to gain some of the new powershell features and remote management capabilities.
We have set up a new RDS License Server running 2012 R2 in our development environment. We migrated our old licenses to 2012 CALs during the migration. When I perform a licensing diagnosis, I show that we have Overused our 2008 R2 licenses but we still have 2012 Licenses available.
Am I doing something wrong? We have to migrate our production environment soon and I want to be sure that I do this right. From reading the Interoperability Matrix (Link), it shows that a 2012 CAL can be used to connect to 2008 R2, 2008, and 2003. Why would the Licensing Diagnosis show BuiltInOverUsed on the capacity?
Do I need to worry about it or just make sure we have the licenses available to cover all our connections?
By the way, this seems to be the most convoluted and difficult process in Microsoft. No one can ever seem to get the *correct* answer, more than once in a row.
