License Metric Microsoft core

[FranckM]

Hi Falks,

i have seen that the new Core Licensing model of Microsoft Server is calculating wrong in my instance Yokahoma.

following the rules, the metric should do following and consider the minimum.... Any experience how to correct it in the license metric?  or any news if it is fixed in the newer release?

| **Situation** | **Number of Cores = ?** | **Minimum Requirements** |
| ---------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Physical Licensing** (for a physical server) | All physical cores on the server must be licensed. | At least **8 cores per physical processor** and a minimum of **16 cores per server**. |

| **Licensing by Virtual Machines (VMs)** | All virtual cores assigned to a VM must be licensed. | Minimum: **8 cores per VM**. Requirement: **Subscription license or Software Assurance (SA)**. |

thank you

Hi @FranckM ,

I‘m sorry, but I didn’t get the issue etc.? Could you please share more details about the wrong results?

Best, Dennis

the new Microsoft core Licensing modell required a minimum of 16 cores per physical server. 

in ServiceNow Yokahoma, the minimum isnt applicable. it simply count the number of cores. e.g. a Server with 8 Cores provide a License needs of 8, which is wrong

Hi @FranckM ,

 could you please share a screenshot of your Windows server software model related lists „Metric Attributes“ and any proof why the tool isn’t calculating against the Msft rules.

thanks, Dennis
