Windows 2003 TS Licensing

Mikey · 11 Dec 2008 at 12:08

Got a problem with a customers Citrix set-up at the moment and it appears that the licenses haven't all be installed onto the MS TS Licensing server.

However before we apply the next set of CALS I've found that some of the originally installed CALs have been installed as per device and they should have been per user.

Is there an easy way to change this or does the TS Licensing server need to uninstalled and re-installed?

The other issue is that they seem to have gone for per device and then per user with their CALs.... Joy, consistency anyone

I didn't think you could change a licence type - could be wrong though (very probably)

I can's see a easy way to remove them except to re-install which I'm not keen on

Pretty much a paper exercise isn't it when using per user. As long as the TS can find a license server, doesnt even have to be activated! Then it will just work.

well to just get them working we installed the cals in per user mode and job done. i'll get someone to tidy it up on the christmas shutdown.

customer shuts between xmas and new year and they have imposed a change freeze. wtf!!
