Just to be sure does that mean that for $2000 I can install on one physical system and unlimited guests on that system or does that mean the $2000 are only for the host system with the*ability* to host an unlimited number of guests and I still have to buy a subscription for each individual guest on top of that?
afaik, its just the virtualization, not the guest licenses.
Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization is priced on a per-managed-socket basis. The subscription includes the license to use Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager for Servers (the management server) and the RHEV-H bare metal hypervisor on each licensed socket.
no mention of licensing of guest OS's including RHEL.
