How to use 2012 RDS CAL 5 User

Hello, I have a question. 
Server 2012 after installing foundation has been configured correctly, was then installed again. RDS Licenses are already activated. How do I use the license on the new installation again? 

Hi,
Thanks for your posting in Windows Server Forum.
For configuring RDS CAL, firstly you need to install RDSH & Licensing role on your server 2012. Then you need to set the licensing mode to per User (as you have User CAL), then need to specify the License server name, need to activate the license server
before installing RDS CAL and finally need to install the CAL. 
Please go through beneath article for understanding regarding RDS CAL.

2.  Introduction to Windows Server 2012 Foundation
3.  How to configure Windows 2012 Foundation
Server as a Remote Desktop Service
Hope it helps!
Thanks,

  • Windows 2012 RDS CALs - OLP NL downgrade to Windows 2003 TS CALs

    Hi,
    Hope someone can shed some light on this inquiry
    I plans to purchase the following:
     2x Windows 2014 SQL STD 2 Core License OLP NL
     30 Windows 2012 RDS CALs (User or Device) OLP NL
               Breakdown example
                Site A = 10 
                Site B = 5
                Site C = 15
    Existing servers are Windows 2003 R2 STD running Terminal Services
    Tried setting up a Windows 2003 R2 TS Server and install TS Roles & Licensing Manager
    Questions.
     1. When I tried to add Windows 2003 TS CALs - OLP NL, the activation screen requires to enter the Authorization & License numbers.
     Can I use the Authorization and License number of the newly purchased Windows 2012 RDS CALs on the Windows 2003 TS Server?
     2. Should I get a separate Authorization & License number per site? (In the example above 3x Authorization & License numbers). Or can we use a single Authorization & License number for all sites? Each site is independent from each
    other.
     3. As I understand, SQL 2014 can be downgraded to any prior previous version at the same editions. (as far as SQL 2000, provided he has the installer), If client has an existing SQL 2003 STD activated already, does he need to change the license key?
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Hi Paul,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server forum.
    Yes, you can use newly purchased server 2012 RDS CAL on server 2003 terminal server.

    For detail regarding the licensee issue I suggest you to contact MS Volume Licensing.
    As per my research, I think you don’t have to change the old license key if client already have the key. And in regards to SQL server you can have a look over beneath article.

    Hi,
    RDS 2012 CALs can license 2008 R2 and 2008 session hosts. However, RDS 2012 CALs only can be installed on the 2012 Licensing server.

  • Windows Server 2012 RDS CALS on Windows Server 2008 R2 Licensing Server

    Hi,
    at the moment we are installing the first couple of Windows Server 2012 in our infrastructure.
    Some of them have installed RDS.
    Now we are wondering whether it is possible to use our existing Windows Server 2008 R2 licensing server for serving the licenses we have (yes we to have new Windows Server 2012 RDS CALS) or whether we have to install a new host based on Windows Server 2012.
    We tried to add the new license to the 2008 R2 licensing server, but it is not possible. The licensing manager's error message: "The license code contains invalid characters or not enough characters."
    Is there any other way?
    Thanks and regards
    Matthias

    Hi matt_will_fix_it,
    How about Windows 2012 R2 ?
    Will a Windows 2012 RD Licensing server provide licences to a Windows 2012 R2 server?
    I have not tested it, but it should work.  Server 2012 R2 requires the same RDS CAL version as Server 2012.  If you try it and have an issue please reply back.

  • How to use advanced tab in user reports?

    Hi,
    How to use "advanced" tab in user reports?
    I have two reports. I fill "Report ID" in both and then I can push "Add Report" and fill fields property.
    Then I'm can "drill" from one report to another on right click, but how to pass parameters?
    Is it even possible?
    Regard
    Libor

    Thank you for reply.
    I can't get it working.
    I have two reports:
    1. report:
    Name: test
    SQL: select 1 NUM, 'text' TEXT from dual;
    On advanced tab:
    ReportID: -null-
    Name: test2
    Report: Test2
    2. report
    Name: test2
    SQL: select :NUM from dual;
    Now, when I run the first report and click do right click on a row and select TEST2
    from popup menu, it navigates to the second report test2, but WITHOUT actual value
    from NUM column from first report.
    I'm using latest version of SQL Developer (1.1.1.25) and I like reports.
    With this feature it would be even better.

  • Install Sun ONE Directory Server 5,2 & how to use it for authenticate user

    Good afternoon, Excuse, are newbie in the scope I am learning and putting desire to him, this in my situation I am trying to install Sun ONE Directory Server 5,2 since I understand that this it is application LDAP for Solaris, ok I want to install it to authenticate user against the system, that is to say, to be able to acces the server entering with a created user from the data base of LDAP and make think user that his created in the system. But the documentation that I finds indicates the installation of Sun ONE Directory Server 5,2 but it not clearly about how to use it for authentication. Some one have any manual step by step of Sun ONE Directory Server 5,2 installation and how to make it for authentication systems users.

    I think that I found the Sun endorsed book locations for using LDAP accounts that don't use authentication besides "crypt". I now can use an account with a "ssha" password. It can be more than 8 characters long.
    Chapter 14 System Administration Guide: Naming and Directory Services
    Read page 201 which is the pam.conf file pam_ldap setups. I edited my "/etc/pam.conf" file to reflect this
    Chapter 7 Directory Server 5.2 2005Q4 - Administration Guide
    Read page 316-318 which has a graphical technique to specify password syntax. I set it up and then tried the password by running "su - brahms". It now requires a longer password than 8 characters and it is set up to use "ssha" for that UID entry "brahms".

    environment:  2 2012 Hosts, connection broker + rdweb (same vm), no gateway, all 2012 OS.  Standard deployment on the 2 hosts.
    I have a 2012 RDS installation of personal VDI.  Users connect to the RDweb server and launch their assigned VDI from there.  Users are experiencing random connection issues when connecting to their VDI via the RDWeb portal.  Here are some
    events in the logs:
    Event 8964 Remote Desktop Virtualization Host failed to process the orchestration request because virtual desktop [VM7REMSBUCJ] is busy processing cleanup from previous logoff event.
    Event 8467 Remote Desktop Virtualization Host failed to get redirection authentication information from the virtual machine [VM7REMSBUCJ] .
    The events above correspond with a remote users attempting to login in the morning to a VDI with a state of shutdown.

    This isn't the best forum for 2012 Server or RDS.  This is specific to Virtual Server 2005.

    There is probably a windows API call that does it.

  • How to use External Drive for Users Directory

    I just did a clean install on my Mac Mini - I have over 4 TB of storage attached, but the main drive (160 GB) keeps filling up. What is the best way to have the Users directory located on an external drive?
    Thanks for your help,
    Chris

    Think about it for a second. What would happen if that external drive wasn't connected for some reason? Maybe it died the night before, as external drives have a habit of doing. How are you going to log into the system?
    If the main drive is filling up, it says that you aren't making effective use of the attached storage. There's nothing saying you have to keep video files in the Movies folder, and music in the Music folder, etc. Find some things, that aren't your user profile, and move them to your external storage. Or consider putting in a larger internal drive.
