We don't use staging but.. question about cluster licensing. We are running 6.1.3 on W2K server with W2K SQL and W2K Exchange cluster clients. When I run nsrlic I get our virtual SQL instance taking one of our cluster client licenses. What is your license use for your clusters?

Cluster client licenses should only be used by physical nodes in a cluster. The virtual client (in this case, the SQL instance) should use a regular client connection license.

I ran the nsrlic command in verbose mode and below is what I found. The SQL instance is taking one of the cluster licenses.
NT CLUSTER CLIENT LICENSES
Available: 5
Used: 3
Remaining: 2
Connected Clients: dabsdb1, dabsdb2, wcdasql;
I know this not not what is supposed to happen.
Cyberted - you have W2K clusters, do you use license manager and what is your cluster client usage regarding physical and virtual node and instance.
