LICENSING QUESTION ABOUT HIGHLY AVAILABLE SETUPS

$

0

Hello, i´m considering a setup that i don´t know the correct licensing requirements.

Assuming i have software assurance so i can have these licensing benefits (free failover instance) you can see in the official licensing documentation.

If i have the next setup:

3 node cluster formed of:

2 node failover cluster of sql enterprise (high core count each) in one site, one node active and other passive for the main site.

A third node in other site with always on AG asynchronous databases in warm state (no queries, only for disaster recovery purposes)

Then, i only have 1 server accepting "queries" or production use, then:

Can i only license the enterprise core licenses for 1 host?

Or we need to cover some of the other nodes? Seems that official documentation is not clear about this concrete setup...
