Frequently Asked Questions — Windows Server India

Windows Server 2022 is licensed per physical core (minimum 16 core licenses per server, sold in 2-core packs). Standard Edition covers the physical server plus 2 Hyper-V VMs. Datacenter covers unlimited VMs. Additional VMs on Standard require additional Standard licenses.

CSP (subscription) provides monthly INR billing — useful for organizations preferring opex. Perpetual licensing is a one-time purchase (with optional Software Assurance for future version rights and Azure Hybrid Benefit). Ogma recommends perpetual for stable on-premises environments and CSP for environments that change frequently.

Yes — Hyper-V is included in all Windows Server 2022 editions (Standard and Datacenter). No separate Hyper-V Server license is needed. Hyper-V Server (standalone, no Windows OS) is being discontinued — Ogma recommends Windows Server Datacenter for Hyper-V hosts.

Software Assurance (SA) provides: rights to the next Windows Server version released during the SA period, Azure Hybrid Benefit (use licenses on Azure VMs), and disaster recovery rights (passive DR instance at no extra cost). For organizations planning to use Azure or wanting version upgrade rights, SA is typically worth the cost.

SQL Server 2022 Standard supports a limited Always On AG (2 nodes, 1 database per AG, secondary is read-only). For full Always On with multiple databases, readable secondaries, and automatic failover with no database limits, SQL Server Enterprise Edition is required.

Ogma deploys WSUS (Windows Server Update Services) for enterprises, or manages Windows Update policies via Group Policy/Intune for smaller environments. Patches are tested in a staging group before deployment to production — applied during scheduled maintenance windows with rollback procedures.

Yes — Ogma performs in-place upgrades (Server 2012R2/2016 to 2022) and migration-based upgrades (new server deployment + workload migration). Active Directory upgrades (domain and forest functional level) are handled as a separate coordinated activity. Ogma documents the full upgrade plan before any production changes.
