Where exactly is that written?

    [...] The term "Installed Servers" means the number of servers
    on which Customer installs Red Hat Linux Advanced Server. The
    initial number of Installed Servers is the number of copies of
    Advanced Server that Customer purchases. [...]

Also see paragraph "5. AUDIT" with regard to an underreported number
of "Installed Servers".

How would you install more than one server with only one licenced
copy of the install CDs?

Parts of this thread resemble the "free speech vs. free beer"
debate. Just because Advanced Server is based on Open Source GNU
GPL'ed software (with source rpms being available for free download)
does not mean the product as developed, prepared, built, and sold by
Red Hat can be copied freely (or stripped off non-GPL packages, or
installed on more system than the licence permits) once a single
copy has been purchased. The only alternative is to build your own
binaries and CDs from the freely available source rpms. But the
resulting product would not be Red Hat Advanced Server.
