Re: license problem
So you have 10 Per Device TS CALs and 10 Per User TS CALs.
That's usually not a good idea, since a single terminal server can
only use one type of licenses.
The fact that you don't see any temporary licenses issued probably
means that your Terminal Server is configured to use the Per user
licensing mode. Check this in Terminal Services Configuration -
Server settings.
Per User licenses are currently unmanaged, that's why they are
listed as "Not Applicable" under the "Issued" count. That means
that you will have to keep track of the number of connecting users
by hand.
You should also call the Clearinghouse and switch your Per Device
licenses into Per User licenses (assuming that you want all
Terminal Servers to use Per user licensing). This is allowed when
you renew your Software Assurance Agreement.
Now to solve your problem: I assume that it occurred only on a
single client? If so, delete the locally stored license from the
client. Here's how that is done:
