    User CALS transferable to upgraded OS version


    Hello,We are currently using windows server 2012 r2 and we have 50 user CALS already in use on the server. We are going to be upgrading to windows server 2022 and my question is; if we are keeping the existing hardware and only upgrading the OS version are the user CALS still usable or do we need to purchase new ones.

    :)

    Is the user CAL and device CAL license is transferrable to other user or device (Windows Server and SQL Server)

    Hello! My name is Mostafa, and I will try my best to assist you with this so that you find a satisfactory solution.

    User Client Access Licenses (CALs) and Device CALs for Windows Server and SQL Server are typically not transferable between users or devices. CALs are typically associated with a specific user or device and cannot be transferred to another user or device. When a CAL is assigned to a user or device, it remains with that user or device until it expires or is no longer needed.

    Review the below article.

    If I hope that help, reach out to me, and I will be happy to help and try my best to resolve your issue. Thank you.

    Best,

    Mostafa
