But, the licenses are tied to the physical hardware. You cannot run one instance on one hypervisor and another for the same Standard license on another hypervisor.

By default, KMS client computers attempt to renew their activation every seven days. After a client's activation is renewed, the activation validity interval begins again.
You can accept these default settings, or if you have special network and security configuration requirements, you can manually configure KMS hosts and clients. After a KMS host is activated, administrators can reactivate the same host up to nine times with the same key. If your organization needs more than six KMS hosts, you should request additional activations for your organization's KMS key—for example, if you have ten physical locations under one volume licensing agreement and you want each location to have a local KMS host.
To request this exception, contact your Activation Call Center. For more information, see Microsoft Volume Licensing. Computers that are running volume licensing editions of Windows 10, Windows Server , Windows 8.
