A customer licensed with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard may run one instance of the server software in the physical operating system environment (POSE) and one instance of the server software in a virtual operating system environment (VOSE). If the customer is running the instance in the VOSE, the instance running in the POSE can only be used to manage the instance of the operating system running in the VOSE.
The orange arrow in the diagram indicates that when running both instances, the instance of the server software running in the POSE may only be used to manage and service the instance of the operating system running in the VOSE.
Diagram B indicates that with Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard, customers may move a virtual instance of the server software to another server that is properly licensed to support the added instance. For Volume Licensing customers, the actual license may also be reassigned to another server every 90 days.
