Guest DroolinDog Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 Hi all. Looking for a quick answer: I have a client with a Terminal Server with TS licensing installed on the TS itself. Because the TS is malfunctioning, we are replacing it, but before doing so we need to install TS Licensing on the domain controller and migrate the licenses. Can anyone tell me the easiest way to do this so as to ensure we don't lose the previously activated licenses? Thanks in advance! Jamie

Jamie Hi - I'd post in microsoft.public.windows.terminal_services for the most expert help.
Guest Anthony [MVP] Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 Re: Moving a Terminal Server Licensing Server You need to deactivate the TS Licensing Server, then activate a new one and install your licenses. There is no migration. The client checks for a license each time and collects one if needed.

To install the TSCALs on the new server, the Jamie will have to contact the MS Clearing House to get them reissued. He/she will need to have the documentation for the original order... -- Regards, Hank Arnold Microsoft MVP Windows Server - Directory Services
