FAQs – License Mobility

When do I need to fill the License Verification Form?

You will need to send in the new License Verification Form when:

• Submit the License Verification Form within 10 days of deployment.
• You deploy additional licenses.
• Renew your EA (Enterprise Agreement) or Volume Licensing (VL) agreement.
• Renew your Software Assurance (SA).

What if I do not have Software Assurance on the Licenses?

Even if you have Volume Licenses; you need to have Software Assurance rights to invoke License mobility. You will need to contact your Microsoft Representative

on the options you have and how you can get Software Assurance on your current set of licenses.

What are the charges I have to pay to invoke License Mobility?

Can I setup a Hybrid Cloud environment while invoking License mobility?

During SAM audits done by Microsoft, will Apps4Rent assist us?

As a customer you will have full administrator rights to the environment and you will be able to login into the server as an administrator. This ensures that you will be able to handle the audits.

Can I use my existing Microsoft Licenses?

All customers using License mobility via Software Assurance have to complete the license verification process. Microsoft will ensure that the customer has eligible licenses and those could be used in a cloud environment with a cloud provider.

Am I still covered under support when I provide my own licenses?
