Hi,

We have FIM Sync, FIM Service/Portal & SSPR deployed (Server #1). We have licensed the server components of FIM, as well as the user CALs (2000 users).

Due to business requirements, if we now deploy another FIM Sync and FIM Service/Portal (Server #2) - I understand we will require server licenses.

However, since we already have the 2000 FIM CALs (being used on Server #1), my understanding is that we do not need to purchase another 2000 CALs, as we will be managing the same 2000 users on the new FIM Service/Portal server.

Is this understanding correct?

Thanks,

SK

Are these servers being used in the same environment or are you deploying a second FIM environment? Basically, you only have on FIMSycnhronizationService and FIMService database?

If so, to the best of my knowledge,

1. the users are the same 2000, so no need for CALS. 

2. For FIMSync, you will not need a license, because you can only run one license at the time. 

3. For FIMService you may need a server license.

You may need to check with your MS Rep, anyhow.

Thanks Nosh, it would be another (and separate) FIM environment, but managing the same set of users.

cheers.

In that case it seems like you will pay for the whole thing.

So in addition to the FIM Server licenses, we will require yet another 2000 FIM CALs?

My educated guess is yes, but you should really be checking with your
