Windows Server 2012 Standard entitlement in Microsoft Action Pack Subscription

Question

In the Microsoft Action Pack Subscription Windows Server 2012 Std shows "2" as the entitlement.

I'm not sure what this means. A "normal" Server 2012 Std includes: 1. One activation for the host (Hyper-V) 2. Two activations for guests on the same host ....making a total of three activations

I'm pretty sure from reading some threads that partners don't get the same as a normal Std license, but it's pretty fuzzy.

Does anyone know what the story really is?

Answer 1

It looks like you can perform only two activations:

1. On bare metal
2. As a VM
