KMS license used as a MAK key


hello,
i'm facing environment several machines (2008 servers mainly) accident activated using the kms key. intented kms clients in fact not, since local administrator used kms key.

in network there valid kms machine problem servers considering kms servers.

on 1 of these tried slmgr.vbs -upk , hoping become kms client guess not, considers server unlicensed , not allow login unless provide key (the usual text yellow sticker).

so think have 2 questions,

1) need mak 1 server solve problem?

2) best way solve other 2008 servers being registered kms key? (will kms invalid if used many times)?

 

thanks!


erik, many, many certs! ;-)

 

hello,

 

kms keys should installed on kms hosts , should not installed on kms clients. run slmgr.vbs -ipk <setupkey>. following table shows table of setup keys can use revert computer kms client. these keys publicly known , edition-specific. remember delete unnecessary srv resource records dns , restart computers.
