Hi,
We are using the following environment for production deployment using ArcGIS Server 10
1) Two SOM server with 8 core each and no self SOC configured in it
2) Two SOC machine with 8 core each
3) Two Database server with 8 core each having ArcSDE in it
I have ArcGIS Server 10 Enterprise Standard Edition 4 Licenses
As per my understanding, We need license for SOC machines only i.e. 4 Licenses; and no License required for SOM machine. Similarly no license is required for ArcSDE on database servers.
Please if, someone can suggest whether my understanding is correct or do we need more licenses and at what level ?
Any help is highly appreciated !!

Yes, you are correct. As the ArcGIS Server enterprise license supports an entry level 4-cores, your each ArcGISSOC machines need 2 licenses. Hence for two SOC machines with 8 cores each a total of 4 ArcGIS Server licenses are required.
ArcGIS Server SOM machine do not need authorization, while running the Post Installation on the SOM machine you will see the Authorization is disabled.
On the two SDE box with 8-cores each you need total of 4 licenses to authorize the software. But as ArcGIS Server Standard Enterprise license includes ArcSDE. You can use the same ArcGIS Server Standard Enterprise licenses to authorize ArcSDE on your Data Server. If you can open the ECP file in a notepad or wordpad you will see ArcSDEServer entry which indicate ArcSDE is also inculded with it.
Hope the above information helps you resolve the issue.
Please let me know if you have any more questions.
