Hi,

I'm using VSTS and want to setup private build servers. I have some servers on which I want to install Visual Studio 2017 Build Tools. I'll be using autoscaling, so sometimes we have 2 servers running and sometimes 10. My question is: how do I do the Visual Studio licensing on the build servers?

- do I need a license key for Visual Studio Build Tools?

- do I need to acquire a new key whenever a server starts?

- where do I acquire the key?

- how do I enter the key?

- am I entitled to a certain amount of keys through my VSTS account or through our existing users with MSDN (Visual Studio) licenses?

- I've just installed Visual Studio Build Tools and the builds just work. How is this possible without entering a key?


Many questions, but you would help me very much with providing answers.


Best regards,
