Project Server 2010 how many CAL licenses do I need?

Hey Guys,
We have Project Server 2010 running for two years now.
We are preparing for the true-up yearly exercise with Microsoft to count the nbr of CAL licenses we need.
As Project Server admin I have been asked to provide an access log of the users accesing Project Server.
Is there a way to know how many users are accessing Project Server so we know how many CAL we need?
I alreayd read the project server 2010 licensing guide (http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/8/8/F88B3241-3E27-4BDD-8A01-ABF2422FB31C/Project%202010%20Licensing%20-%20Licensing%20Guide.pdf)
but it does not help me in this case.
Thanks in advance

"Well, you could just go to Server Settings >> Manage Users >> Actions and Export to Excel.
From there you can filter out the Active vs. Inactive Resources, and get your counts"

  • How many Sql licenses do i need

    hi ,
    With one sql license how many users can connect concorrently to SAP Business One.If there are more than 50 SBO users how many sql licenses do i need to take?
    Thanks
    OmPrakash.

    Hi Om,
    Generally if we install a SQL Server licensed version by default we get 5 user liceses, so i guess u need more no of CAL (Client Access Licenses) and generally 1 CAL would cost u around 3000-5000.
    But when ur talking abt 50 users i suggest u go for the SQL Processor based license which will be cheaper.
    For more information please check the following link

  • Project Server 2010:- How to add Own Workspace filter in workspace web part like project server 2007

    Hi All,
    I am using project server 2010.
    Can some one advise me how can I add Own Workspace filter option in workspace web part like project server 2007 which is showing all projects name page by page. There no filter option available. I am not sure if there is any out of box feature. 
    Thanks in Advance..

    Nitin,
    PS2010 shows by default the workspaces you have permissions to. Unfortunately, there is no more filtering options available.
    The only solutions are to write a custom webpart, or develop your own SSRS Report, which you can customize the way you want.
    Refer to Paul's excellent blog post on this topic here:

  • How many DCNM license would be needed?

    I am considering DCNM Enterprise features activation in my fabric. I have Nexus 1x 7000, 1x 5000 and 2x 4000.
    In official description, DCNM license is only an option in Nexus 7000 and has a specific part number of N7K.
    If I would like to active all enterprise features on my all Nexus Switches. Can someone tell me how many DCNM-N7K-K9 would be needed?
    Or just one can cover all my Nexus?
    Thanks very much

    Salut !
    As far as I know you'll need one license per nexus 7k you want to manage. If you want to manage several types of nexus switches, take a look to the "DCNM enterprise license".

  • Project Server 2010 Licensing

    My company is considering installing Project Server 2010 and we have a question concerning CALs. According to a document we have, the following CALs are required:
    Project Server CAL
    SharePoint Standard CAL
    SharePoint Enterprise CAL
    SQL Server CAL
    Windows Server CAL
    Our question is, is it necessary for every user in the company who needs to access PWA to have all 5 of these CALs? I know that if I have Project Pro 2010, I already have the Project Server CAL. Do I need the other 4?
    If the answer is yes, it seems excessive to require so many CALs for a single application.
    Thx - Shane

    Well, while the list of CALs is correct, epending upon your licensing model for Windows and SQL Server, your users might already have those CALs already. In addition, if your users have a SharePoint CAL anywhere else in the orifganiation, it still applies. 
    All in all, it might be useful fro you to talk to a Microsoft licensing representative, as the model depends upon each organization.
    And finally, If you are just starting out with Project Server, I suggest you look at the latest version, especially Project Online +project Lite, which makes the whole licensing model super easy.

  • Project Server 2010 Resource Assigments - Need a license for every Resource?

    I am trying to determine the requirements for Project Server 2010 licenses.
    In Project Server 2010, I need to add resources to the pool, then assign a resource to a project task.  The task will be maintained/statused through a manager, not the resource.  
    Does that resource need to have a Project Server license even if the resource never accesses Project Server even through PWA?

    Hi JenKranich,
    You need licences only for users that will access
    Project Server data by any means :
    MS Project Pro, Sharepoint sites and/or
    PWA.
    But resources not associated with users are not "real person" accessing data but just informal entity, thus no need for licences for those resources.
    It is important to note that if those resources can access the SharePoint site, since it contains Project Server data (risks, issues, deliverables), then they DO need a licence.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to configure Https in Project server 2010.

    HI,
    Can i any one help me,
    How to configure Https in Project server 2010.
    My server farm is 1.Test1(App & Wfe) 2. Test2(App & Wfe) 
    Both are load balanced  wit NLB as abc.hyd.in
    DO i need to Install certificate in two servers   Test1 & Test2 or one server is enough ?
    Can any one please provide me a link to configure Https for project server 2010 for Two  Farms Servers.
    Thank You, Kumar KSV

    There is no special configuration for Project Server to have the IIS enabled, it follows the typical sharepoint SSL enablement, we might need some mor edetails on how your NLB is done is it hardware based, software based ? it all depends how you want
    to architecht the system, you can enable the Https either on NLB or WFE, again depending upon how you want to enable it, you will need to install the certificates on both WFE or on NLB
    Follow the blog below to configure the SSL:

    It does not work this way. You have to use a content editor webpart.

  • How to sync Projects between Sharepoint and Project server 2010.

    Hello,
    My project is saved in SharePoint and I am trying to save and link my project from Sharepoint to Project server 2010 so that they will be saved in Sharepoint and Project Serverwill both and synced.Users can edit or update from Sharepoint
    and Project server.
    Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Prashant
    Thanks, Prashant

    Hi Prashant,
    It is a bit unclear how you have a project in Sharepoint AND a project in Project Server 2010.
    The basic process is :
    you have EPT, associated with a Sharepoint template
    You create from Project Server 2010 (project center) a project choosing an EPT
    a project plan (mpp) will be created, editable from PWA or MS Project Pro2010
    a Sharepoint site associated with the project plan will be created, based on the EPT WSS template
    In server settings, you can sync permissions between the project plan and the sharepoint site, and also check for the url and eventually update them.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to enable Portfolio Analysis Feature for Project Server 2010?

    Hi,
    We have a Project Server 2010 instance. We now want to Use the Portfolio Analysis on our server. How can we enable the feature on our existing environment without disturbing any current feature that we have ?
    If someone can provide with the detailed steps for the configuration process that will be helpful.
    Thanks

    Hi ,
    The portfolio feature is part of the out of the boxProject Server 2010 solution. Maybe you just have to unhide the links in the quick launch menu. It will not disturb any of your current configuration.

  • How to disable the edit Permission after the task approval in project server 2010.

    Hi ,
    Can this be done.
    How to disable the edit Permission after the task approval in project server 2010.
    I mean How to Disable approve/Reject Permission Once task approved in project server 2010.
    Any Help Would be more than Welcome.

    Hi Rohan,
    Just talking about the tool capabilities, preventing a task approver (status manager) to approve/reject updates once he has already approved once is not possible out-of-the-box. You grant permissions to user: if you grant a user to approve task updates then
    he has the permission to approve updates, no matter if it is the 2nd or 3rd time the task is approved or rejected.
    Then of course you could do not custom development to do that.
    I'd say that in order to help you, we would need to understand a little bit more your business need. Why do you need to achieve such a goal? We can surely propose you workaround.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to query Process Status from database in Project Server 2010

    Hello All,

    Thanks,

    Hi Rohit,
    you will not be able to find this information in reporting DB - the only database queries are supported.
    If you really want to go for an unsupported solution, you should be able to find related tables and how to join them in stored proc "MSP_WEB_SP_QRY_Statusing_ReadStatus" in published database.
