Licensing questions for CF 2021 and 2025. We are moving from on-premise to AWS cloud. Not upgrading to ACF 2025 until we are in the cloud. We want to use our ACF 2021 Enterprise license when moving. Currently • 2021 ColdFusion Enterprise 8 CPU license • 1 PRODUCTION server with 2 apps (single JVM single CF instance) (2 CPU) ◦ One app is customer facing • 1 QA/TEST server with 2 apps (single JVM) • 1 DEV server with 2 apps (single JVM) Moving to AWS • The same 2021 ColdFusion Enterprise 8 CPU license • 2 PRODUCTION servers with ALB and separating the 2 apps (4 servers total with 2 CPUs each) • 2 QA/TEST servers with ALB and separating the 2 apps (4 servers total with 2 CPUs each) • 2 DEV servers ALB (but only one server each) and separating the 2 apps (2 servers only) Any licensing issue with my calculations? My understanding is non-production environments do not count in the CPU total? Then what about 2025 licensing?

I’m interested in the answer to this as there’s 3 options when installing the server - I’m not confident on what a dev env and staging env means in terms of licensing
I’ve also had some problems when I’m installing and don’t choose the prod option when it comes to validating the license
(the lock down process might block the license validation process?)
I’m also not sure whether the core nuance of the license detail applies to dev boxes too
