What is Microsoft AVMA? “AVMA lets you install virtual machines on a properly activated Windows server without having to manage product keys for each individual virtual machine, even in disconnected environments. AVMA binds the virtual machine activation to the licensed virtualization server and activates the virtual machine when it starts up. AVMA also provides real-time reporting on usage and historical data on the license state of the virtual machine. Reporting and tracking data is available on the virtualization server.”
When the AVMA key is not installed, your virtual systems will not activate.
Import Windows license key:
slmgr /IPK DBGBW-NPF86-BJVTX-K3WKJ-MTB6V
In our situation we need to report to our KMS server:
slmgr /SKMS tst.hosting.com
Activate Windows:
slmgr /ATO
Check the licensed status of your Windows Host.
slmgr /DLV or DLI
Or with PowerShell for checking your full scvmm managed environment:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 |
$Hosts = Get-SCVMHost | select FQDN foreach($a in $hosts){ $sl = Get-WmiObject -Query 'SELECT * FROM SoftwareLicensingService' -ComputerName $a.FQDN if($($sl.KeyManagementServiceProductKeyID) -like $null){ Write-host "No license installed on host:" + $a.FQDN } } |
