Dear team,

I need to know what are the supported downgrades for Windows Server 2022 and SQL server 2022 licenses. I need to licenses existing VMs of an environment, having different Windows Server and SQL versions, and I am not able to find any documentation from Microsoft.

Thank you,

    Hi @Micheal Mallo

    For detailed information about the license issue, you can call 1-800-426-9400, Monday through Friday, 6:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. (Pacific Time) to speak directly to a Microsoft licensing specialist. Or you can go to Volume Licensing Service Center support. Please choose region/language and choose to call or have web.

    Best regards,
