Power BI Report Server On Premise Licensing

AlexElm — Fri, 09 Jul 2021 08:25:25 GMT

Hello,

I'm sorry if my question has been already adressed but as far as I know, I didn't the answer to my question.

We have purchased a Power BI Premium license A4/P1 SKU and we have already installed a Power BI Report Server on Premise on a virtual machine which has 4 vcore. We would like to install another instance of Power BI Report Server on another virtual machine in order to make clear separation of use between two separates entities in our organization (obviously we'll need also separates databases but that is not a problem). What are the limitations in terms of licensing ? For example, is our Premium license enable for 8 vcore and so we can install another Power BI Report Server Instance in a 4 vcore VM ?

Thanks all for your help,

Alex.

Update : after some times searching and founding this post : https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Report-Server/Upgrade-Report-server-to-more-CPU-and-license/m-p/1256312

it seems to me that I am able to install another instance on a 4 Vcore VM (since I have 8 Vcore in the cloud)

Best Regards

Yes, with premium licences, you are able to install report server instance on multiple machines and VMs.
