Licensing Administration

[Guest Glen]

Here is the problem I am facing. Is there an easy fix?...

 

 

I have a mix of Windows 2003 and 2000 TS's at several different divisions.

I have my license server set up as Enterprise license servers so that each

site only gets licenses from within their own site. As new computers or

terminals are added, I am not always notified that more licenses are needed

until it is too late and all licenses are used up.

 

Is there a way to configure some sort of warning that I am approaching my

licensing limit? Is there a way for the system to let me know that 75% of

licenses are in use?

 

How do I keep track of how many licenses are in use other than manually

connecting and looking at it? That works, but is tedious. There must be a

better way.

 

Thanks.

Check if this helps:

 

How can I monitor my TS license database and get a warning when I'm

running out of available licenses?
