Upgrading AOS from 5.19.2 to 5.20
To add to the previous comment, with Windows Server Standard licenses you can only migrate a VM once in a 90-day period meaning that if the AHV load balancing function moves a VM more than once in a 90-day period you are in breach of the Windows Server Standard License. I currently have an AHV cluster with 3 nodes and all nodes are licensed with Windows Server Datacenter meaning we are not only without the 90-day limit but we also have no limit on the number of VMs we can install per node. The only issue with the Datacenter licensing is that you have to pay the Software Assurance up every two years which costs about 1/3 of the original license cost, but this allows you to upgrade to the next OS the moment it is released. I believe from a cost point of view the Datacenter licensing starts to become the cheaper option at the point of having 10 VMs per node of which I have 13 per node.
