POWER BI REPORT SERVER LICENSING AND INSTALLATION

My question is: do we need to install Power BI Report Server in the same server where we have our SQL Server Enterprise Edition?
Yes you do. The cores where Power BI runs have to be covered by the SQL Enterprise License. Interestingly the backend database can be hosted on a different server that can be running a different edition (like SQL Standard). But the actual Power BI Report Server itself has to be on the enterprise licensed cores.

Hi.
We have more SQL servers Enterprise at our company. But only one with SA. Do we need to use for installation of Power BI server this one with SA?
Thank you for the answer.
