About SQL Server - Server + CAL license

$

0

If i purchase sql server 2016 Standard edition - server + cal license

server license for the vm/server (say serverA) on which database engine will be installed.

CAL license for each user/device accessing serverA remotely. Say there are 3 users > user1, user2, user3 who will be accessing serverA.

Question1: Can I install multiple sql engines on serverA since i already have server license? I know that multiple sql server engines can be installed in case of core based licensing. 

Question2: If answer of question 1 is 'No' means i have to buy another server license. Suppose i buy another server license and i install named instance of sql on same server 'serverA'. Now 'serverA' has two database engines. But the users who are going to use named instance are same as of default instance i.e user1, user2, user3 for which i already have 3 cal license. So do i need to buy 3 more cal license for the 3 users in order to them access named instance?

Thanks in Advance
