Hi all, we'd want to know if there is any limitations on the number of VMs to be created with Windows Server 2022 Standard Edition.

From the webpage https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/pricing, it says that only 2 "ose/hyper-v isolated container" can be created. This is a bit confusing as we'd definitely create more than 2 VMs per host. Thnanks!
