SQL Server Licensing Requirements When Replicating A Server Using VEEAM

Question

Greetings --

We use VEEAM on site to perform backups of VM instances. We have a need to replicate a Reporting Services instance and SQL instance down to a DR site using VEEAM block level replication. The DR servers will be offline and not accessible unless there is a DR event. Would I need a MCCA license, Software Assurance license or just a basic core license for just the primary server?

Percy, I never posted this question. I was out of town all day yesterday traveling. No one logged in my account, I checked. I also made sure my account locked down. I'm not sure who posted this question but it did not come from me.

Thank you - Thomas.
