The Enterprise license is per pair of physical CPUs, and you can run
multiple copies of Enterprise on a single 2-CPU machine with a single
license. These copies can be separate CF server instances within a
single OS, or within separate VMs. If your VM server has more than two
physical CPUs, or you wish to use multiple VM servers in a cluster,
you need to license CF for all the physical CPUs that CF will run on.
