I've setup KMS activation before but for office.

This time I'm trying to do it for Windows. I've added Win 10 KMS key to our KMS server and it seems to be successful.

However what command can I use to see if there have been any KMS requests from the win 10 machines?

The only info I can find on the web is to run: slmgr.vbs /dlv

As the KMS server was previously used to activate Win 7 clients when I run this command I get back:

Description: Windows (R) 7, VOLUME_KMS_WIN10 Channel


Key Management service is enabled on this machine:
Current count: 22
Listening on Port 1688
DNS publishing enabled
KMS priority normal


I know the activation threshold is 25. However does that mean 25 for ALL variants of Windows? So say if 13 Win 7 clients requested activation and 13 Win 10 clients also requested it would start activating them, despite the fact that individually neither are 25?

Edit:

I just ran slmgr.vbs /ato from an unactivated Win 10 client and the count on the KMS server went up by 1 to 23. So I am going to assume that the threshold of 25 is infact for all variants of Windows.
