Currently we have an active Action Pack subscription which includes 16 Windows Server core licenses.
Following your license guide "Each physical server, including single-processor servers, needs to be licensed with a minimum of 16 core licenses." (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/licensing/product-licensing/windows-server)
We are evaluating to upgrade our Action Pack to "Partner Success Core Benefits", but as it includes only 8 Windows Server Core licenses it does not meet minumum requirements for a full server license. (https://assetsprod.microsoft.com/en-us/benefits-guide-learn-more-about-updated-benefits.pdf
So my question is: how can we use the licenses included in "Partner Success Core Benefits"? Can we purchase additional windows server core licenses separately?
Thanks and regards,
Alessandro

Action Pack does include certain product licenses; however, I don't see where the Windows licenses are included - Microsoft Partner Benefits and Offerings | Compare Offers
Do you have documentation that I can review that confirms the core licenses are included w/ your Action Pack?

Sorry but I still don't understand. Let me rephrase my question:
- I have an active Action Pack which will expire June, 29
- I am evaluating to move from Action Pack to Partner Success Core Benefits
- Partner Success Core Benefits provide 8 core license for Windows Server:
- Minimum core licenses for any kind of windows server installation is 16 (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/licensing/product-licensing/windows-server).
My question is: if I purchase Partner Success Core Benefits, how can I reach the minimum number of core licenses required for a Windows Server installation?
