My server is running a Dual Xeon E5520 processor with 4 cores per processor. I'm wanting to install SQL Server 2008 Std. R2 with processor licensing.
Am I required to purchase the R2 1 processor license or 2 license because it is a dual xeon? Hopefully, the cores don't add to the cost.
If it is the 2 license, can I purchase 2 1-processor licenses and add both licenses somehow during the install?
Thanks,
Matt
