Well I've read that a couple of times now, and I'm still not *absolutely sure* if a DR mirror server requires a server licence or not.
I can quite see that CALs are not required so long as we don't actively query the mirror...but it's a bit vague about the basic server licence.
I guess this is why I leave licencing questions to other people 🙂
