If they did not allow downgrade it would go against the pattern they follow for almost all similar licenses. I would be surprised if the single CAL packs did not provide downgrade rights, however, I have not read the EULA for them so I cannot tell you for sure.

You still need to install TS Licensing server as well as activate it, but it is not mandatory to install any licenses, even if you purchased Per Device, so long as you set your TS licensing mode to Per User.

Once you have the CALs, set the TS license mode on your 2003 servers to Per User in Terminal Services Configuration (tscc.msc). In order to comply with the license agreement, simply purchase the required number of CALs. Hi, Here are the part numbers for the retail single packs: Part# 6VC-00025 2008 R2 RDS Per-User CAL Part# 6VC-00101 2008 R2 RDS Per-Device CAL It does not matter that much if Microsoft creates a hotfix for 2003 or not because there is no need for you to install the CAL on your 2003 servers to be compliant with the EULA. It may be possible if you connected to a 2003 TS Licensing server using the hotfix version of the 2008 TS Licensing Manager. Now does it make sense why a hotfix was needed in order for 2008 to support single CAL packs? I do not think you will be able to install a single CAL Retail pack on a 2003 TS Licensing server, unless Microsoft releases a hotfix for 2003. There was no single CAL retail pack at the time. When the wizard was developed it was known that retail packs would only be available in certain quantities. The situation with the retail packs is different.
The other thing to remember is that the customer may not want to install all of their purchased volume TS CALs on a single TS licensing server, so that need is met as well by giving the customer the ability to enter the number of CALs to install. With a volume license purchase, the customer could purchase 1-xxxx licenses, so the wizard needed to have the ability to add a variable number of TS CALs. If you think about it for a moment, it makes logical sense.
The retail packs are different-I believe the wizard was hard-coded to know that retail packs come in 5 or 20 quantities. When you install a volume TS CAL the wizard prompts you for the number of CALs to install. The TS install licenses wizard has always supported a variable number of CALs for volume licensing programs. Yes, 2003 supports installing single TS CALs if you are using a volume license program. Please let me know if you have any questions.
