Hi All,
I bought a couple of licence packs for two 2012 r2 servers. first one went fine, repeated the exact same process on my other server and it won't work.
to begin with the licences said available but conencting via mstsc gives you "this computer can't connect to the remote computer"
anyway googling told me to remove and reinstall RDS
which I did. at that point it now says 50 licences 0 available.
Report Date:,"08 July 2015 11:27:58"
CAL Version,CAL Type,Installed CALs,CALs in Use,CAL Availability
Windows Server 2012,RDS Per Device CAL,50,0,Available
No Per User License has been Issued
No Per User License Issuance has failed
No Per Device License has been issued
Still get the same error when trying to connect via RDP, licensing diagnoser says :
The Remote Desktop Session Host server is in Per Device licensing mode and No Redirector Mode, but license server SERVER does not have any installed licenses with the following attributes:
Product version: Windows Server 2012
Licensing mode: Per Device
License type: RDS CALs or VDI Premium Suite licenses
To confirm RD licensing is set to per Device and I've that server to the list in Deployment Properties.
any help would be great as currently the only way people can access this server is with mstsc /admin which only has 2 sessions at any one time.
