How to deactivate an old KMS activated client in VAMT 3.1?

I have been unable to find anything in the application, help or Internet that addresses my question. How do I deactivate a host in VAMT? We're an organization that relies on donated computers so sometimes we churn through them quickly. Do I just simply delete
it from VAMT? Do I just ignore it and the activation will expire when the client doesn't phone in?
I apologize in advance if I missed something obvious on this one.

You can just let it go.
KMS hands out temporary activations to it's clients.  There's not much you can to do administer it or manage what is checking in.  Honestly, there's real reason to be concerned about it.
KMS is one of those things that you can set and forget.  As long as new clients are getting activated and all clients can reactivate within 180 days, you're good.
If you're concerned about presentation, you can definitely remove them from VAMT.

  • How to deactivate the old device

    Hi  All,
    Currently I have 2 device.let a (old device) and b (new device).
    After replace with a by b.
    Then I want to Deactivate the  a device in System  but donu2019t want to delete.
    If any user try to use that old device a , then the warning message is coming u201C device is inactiveu2019
    How can I do that?
    Thanks in advance.
    Indu.

    Hi Indu,
    Have you already thought of moving such "outsorted" devices to a special stock? Alternatively you may choose to allocate a special (user-) status(for example, BLOCKED)  to the device/equipment. This also will also prevent a further usage of this device.
    Kind regards,
    Fritz

  • How can I delete old (non-active) email accounts that don't show in the Accounts Preferences pane?

    Since I (reluctantly) abandoned MobileMe and switched to iCloud, when I use Mail Connection Doctor because a problem is indicated with one or more of my email acocunts, it shows both iCloud IMAP and Me.com SMTP accounts. The iCloud account is fine but the SMTP acount has a red button against it.
    So Connection Doctor shows the old SMTP account always failing to connect (of course - as it's been abandoned). However, this account does not show up in the Accounts Preferences pane so I am not able to delete it. This also happens with another account which I deleted in the Preferences pane some time ago.
    How can I stop these phantom accounts appearing in Connection Doctor? It's very irritating to constantly have faults indicated which apply to abandoned accounts.
    Thanks people!

    Go to your iCloud account in Preferences>Accounts. Set the 'Outgoing mail server (SMTP)' drop-down menu to 'Edit SMTP server list'. Then:
    Set the server name as shown here. Then click the Advanced tab and check the settings.
    If you are still having problems, you could start the setup again from scratch. Assuming that your signature is correct and you are running Leopard, delete any iCloud or MobileMe accounts in the list and then follow the instructions here:
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard

  • How can i delete old administrators from client?

    Each time i try to delete old administrators from a client in Remote Desktop, they are just reset after i restart the connection to this client. I deleted the client from Remote Desktop, tried to restart the ARD but it doesn't work. Any idea?
    Best, ixtract

    Sign in to your gmail account from a web browser on your computer, click the gear on the top right then settings, click the forwarding tab enable forwarding and enter your iCloud.com email address and set the drop down to leave a copy on gmail then save changes.
    Be sure to enable Mail in your iCloud settings:
    Settings > iCloud > Mail - on

  • How can I deactivate an old computer that I know longer have?

    How can I deactivate an old computer that I know longer have? I own two computers and Adobe permits two computers on a subscription. However, when I bought my third new computer and didn't deactivate my old computer, I did not notify Adobe. Now, there is a message saying that I must deactivate the old computer to register the new computer. I don't know how to do this. Can anyone help?

    You cannot yourself deauthorize a computer that's not working or to which you no longer have access. You can authorize a total of up to five systems, so unless you've hit that limit it's probably not really important that you deauthorize your dead unit now. Once you reach five total authorizations, a button will appear in your iTunes Store account that will allow you to deauthorize all your systems, so that would at that time recover the now-useless authorization.
    If for some reason you really feel you need to deauthorize a system and you're not at the five-system limit, you can try contacting  the iTunes Store customer support department through their Contact form (follow the on-screen instructions)  and explaining the problem to them. They might be willing to clear your authorizations for you.

    Hi,
    Generally, SAP makes that the down payments are always updated in CO. To maintain the default cost elements, you could use OKEP transaction. However, it's possible to deactivate this function by implementing note 388843.

  • How do I get pictures off my Old de-active device?

    How do I get pictures off my old de active device.  The device still works I just upgraded and now would like my pictures put on my PC.

    If the device has an SD card (micro SD) then you can save the pics to that and transfer to your PC.  If there is no SD option,  you can reactivate the device, text the pics to your email individually, then reactivate the new phone.
    Or you can try BitPim - it may work on your old device, just google for it.
