Forgive this question, but I went from an environment with an ELA to an environment without one, and so licensing really was an afterthought. If I have am using both the web services and the SDE components of ArcGIS Server, and if I want to install SDE on the application server separate from the SQL Server box, does that entail additional licensing from Esri? I wouldn't think so, but this guy on stackexchange suggests otherwise. Another interpretation of the comment would be that having ArcSDE installed on a machine separate from ArcGIS Server would be the trigger that entails separate licensing. How exactly does licensing work at 10.1?
As a policy we don't answer licensing questions on the forums, as these are best answered by your local Esri account team. If you are having difficulty reaching your Esri account manager, please let me know.
