After 60 days, the client's temporary license will expire, and the client will get a new license either a temporary license if no normal licenses are available, or one of the new licenses that have been added. Logging on at the Terminal Server console uses one Client Access License, but this is not reflected in the license count in License Manager.
In the event that only one Client Access License is available, RDP clients at the console or elsewhere will not be able to connect even though the License Manager in-use license count is zero. This is different from normal licensing behavior because administrators can always log on at the console or connect to the server remotely even if no licenses are available. Administrators must log on at the Terminal Server console, or access the server by means other than the RDP client, if the Terminal Server runs out of licenses.
When an RDP client is denied access, the client will receive the generic message: Terminal Server has ended the connection. Computers running Windows for Workgroups 3. Terminal Server License Manager creates seven temporary files in the System32 directory. The temporary files are called JET1. These files are used to temporarily store newly created licenses. It is possible to have more than seven JETx. TMP files. If the server is powered off without using the shutdown routine or if the server is shut down inside an RDP client session, the JETx.
TMP files are not cleaned up. Shutting down the server through an RDP client session is generally not an issue, since services are written to handle power outages by committing cached data very quickly. Administrators should be aware, however, that the normal shutdown procedures are not followed. To do this, uninstall the Terminal Services Licensing component on the old server.
You should regularly back up the Terminal Services license server by using Windows Backup or a similar tool.
Regular backups help protect your licensing data from accidental loss if the system experiences hardware or storage failure.
When you back up a Terminal Services license server, back up both the system state data and the folder in which the Terminal Services license server is installed. By doing this, you make sure that data in both the registry and the Terminal Services license server database is backed up.
If you restore the system state data and the database to the original Terminal Services license server, any unissued licenses are restored correctly, assuming you haven't replaced the operating system on the computer.
If you've replaced the operating system, any unissued licenses aren't restored, and an event that provides the unissued license count is logged in the System log. You can still restore the unissued licenses by using the telephone activation option in the Terminal Services License Manager tool. To switch to the telephone activation option, right-click the server in Terminal Services License Manager, and then click Properties.
Skip to main content. Initially 50 licenses x 4 groups i. It might be confusing and difficult to understand the situation. I hope a professional administrator can advise me and appreciate your early feedback.
Thank you Sooo much… This is great work. Knowledge sharing is very very valuable……. I followed the above steps. Have I missed something obvious? Also, I installed license. Could you please help me? This is the best article about RSD and licensing. This article helped me a lot. Many thanks! Is there a special task that these ports are performing that warrants their use? This port list is taken from Microsoft guidelines. Try to check if RDS licensing works without open netbios ports.
