My name is Aidan, and I am currently in my sophomore year of college as an IT major.
On the other hand if you are running it on the same machine you are accessing it from then you don't need VDA. (Alternatively you can purchase SA on VL). The easiest way to get that is to buy a Microsoft 365 E3 subscription. If you are running it on a server and accessing it remotely over the network you need VDA licensing. Thank you for the clarity!! Maybe this is whats causing the issue.ĭepends on how you are accessing the Desktop OS virtual environments. Wow! Ok, so you're telling me that all this time I've been running vm's with out the right licenses? I never knew that I had to have a different type of license to have a vm in Hyper-v.
While this is not related to your issues, making you aware for clarity.įor one or two desktops neither are cost effective. Virtualization of desktop OS is not covered by a standard retail licence or any volume license or datacenter licenses you have.
