I've been having some difficulty understanding how to be correctly licensed with all the VDI licensing changes that have been made recently.
In an environment where many users connect up to a Remote Desktop Session (not remoteapp or a virtual computer but to a full desktop on a RDS server):
What licenses do I need for users connecting from a shared thin client (Ex: HP T5540)? I'm thinking Windows CAL & Remote Desktop CAL & any application licenses they use (SQL, Office, Exchange, etc).
Do I need a VDI license for every thin client device as well? Isn't that what the RDS CAL is for (we license per user so it should cover these shared thin clients)?
And how does all of this change when you enter BYOD into the equation? (Ex: tablets)
Would it be better to get a VDI licenses for each thin client as well?
