If only one instance of SSRS report service is running at a different VM from SQL server database service, can database product key be used as SSRS product key?

    If you are running the Database Engine on one machine and Reporting Services on another machine, both machines must be licensed. You can probably use the same product key. But both machines needs to be licensed, so the cost is double.
