Differnce Between MAK key & KMS key

I need the difference between MAK key & KMS key under volume licensing/

Hi
MAK allows you to activate multiple machines over the Internet with that one key, the total is dependant on the licensing program with which you acquired the product key.
KMS activation allows you to activate your machine internally against a KMS host which you set up on your internal network.

  • Difference between primary key and primary index

    Dear All,
             Hi... .Could you pls tell me the difference between primary key and primary index.
    Thanks...

    Hi,
    Primary Key : It is one which makes an entry of the field unique.No two distinct rows in a table can have the same value (or combination of values) in those columns.
    Eg: first entry is 111, if you again enter value 111 , it doesnot allow 111 again. similarly for the strings or characters or numc etc. Remember that for char or numc or string 'NAME' is not equal to 'name'.
    Primary Index: this is related to the performance .A database index is a data structure that improves the speed of operations in a table. Indices can be created using one or more columns, providing the basis for both rapid random lookups and efficient ordering of access to records. The disk space required to store the index is typically less than the storage of the table (since indices usually contain only the key-fields according to which the table is to be arranged, and excludes all the other details in the table), yielding the possibility to store indices into memory from tables that would not fit into it. In a relational database an index is a copy of part of a table. Some databases extend the power of indexing by allowing indices to be created on functions or expressions. For example, an index could be created on upper(last_name), which would only store the uppercase versions of the last_name field in the index.
    In a database , we may have a large number of records. At the time of retrieving data from the database based on a condition , it is a burden to the db server. so whenever we create a primary key , a primary index is automatically created by the system.
    If you want to maintain indices on other fields which are frequently used in where condition then you can create secondary indices.
    Reward points if helpful.

  • MAK key asking to activate Office 2010 every 90 days?

    Here's a good brain dumper!  I have 40 HP laptops that our students use occaisionally with a volume-license.  So they are off network most of the time.  We set them up on MAK keys instead of our KMS.  We use a program called
    Deep Freeze so that the PC configuration can not change once it has been set up and frozen.  As I understand, the MAK key activation is forever.  So why would Office 2010 be asking us to activate every 90 days.  This takes a tech 2-3 days to
    unfreeze--activate again--and then freeze the PC once more.  
    Any thoughts?

    Hi Carey Carter,
    As far as I know, Deep Freeze is a kernel-level driver that protects hard drive integrity by redirecting information being written to the hard drive or partition, leaving the original data intact.
    If one hard disk fails and it is replaced, that computer must be reactivated.
    You can refer to this article for more detail information:

    If there is anything I can do for you regarding this issue, feel free to post back.

  • My iphone dosen't doesn't make key tone sounds anymore when I write a text message or when I want to dial a phone number I don't know how to fix this problem, I don't hear the clicking noise anymore does anyone know how to fix this problem?

    My iphone dosen't doesn't make key tone sounds anymore when I write a text message or when I want to dial a phone number I don't know how to fix this problem, I don't hear the clicking noise anymore does anyone know how to fix this problem?And all the sounds on my phone are on, even the keyboard clicks.

    Try restarting your iPhone by holding down the on/off and the home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, double check the volume button just in case.  If you still can't hear the tones go into your settings>sounds and make sure the options are on.

  • Windows 7 x64 MAK Key in KIOSK Image

    SCCM 2007 SP2 R2, WINDOWS 7, Kiosk image (no domain)
    Hi all,
      I am reimaging some kiosk image using MAK key. At the end of TS, i am using "cscript.exe c:\windows\system32\slmgr.vbs /ipk XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX". works, its activate (verify by slmgr.vbs /dli, and under properties)
    the question is when i do SLMGR.VBS /dli , it says Time Remaining 29 days.
     (ps. i removed Partial Product Key: in the image)
    I thought MAK key once activate you don't need to reactivate? i am not using Proxyactivation.

    thanks for reply

    Or will Microsoft provide separate MAK for FPP?

    my daughter put a thick layer of vaseline on my key board. I wiped it off but have found that residue is coming up from the cracks between the keys when I type. Any cleaning suggestions?

    At least vaseline is non-conductive. It might be easier to replace the keyboard.

  • Retrieve the values in Hashtable between two keys?

    Here is my hashtable:
    Hashtable h = new Hashtable();
    h.put("1", "Value1")
    h.put("3", "Value3")
    h.put("7", "Value7")
    h.put("5", "Value5")
    h.put("4", "Value4")
    h.put("2", "Value2")
    h.put("6", "Value6")
    //My requirement is to retrieve values between two keys lets say if i pass 2,6 then it should retrieve value2,value3.....value6Thanks

    I think you need to do something like
    Hashtable h = new Hashtable();
              h.put("1", "Value1");
              h.put("3", "Value3");
              h.put("7", "Value7");
              h.put("5", "Value5");
              h.put("4", "Value4");
              h.put("2", "Value2");
              h.put("6", "Value6");
              List a = new ArrayList();
              for(int i = 1;i<=h.size(); i++){
                   while(i >= 2 && i <= 6){
                        a.add(h.get(new Integer(i)));
                        break;
              }
