Windows Server 2008 KMS Setup Demonstration

This video demonstrates how to implement the Key Management Service (KMS) in your organization. KMS is a local activation service, and is the recommended method of activating volume license editions of Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 in organizations where most computers are consistently connected to the network. This demo shows how to set up the KMS host on a Windows Server 2008 computer, how to activate KMS clients with the KMS host, and how to review activation status using the slmgr.vbs command.

Windows Vista Grace Period Extended to 120 Days

Every Vista DVD includes the ability to install any edition of Vista without a product key. When you install without a product key, you get an automatic 30 day evaluation period. This probably isn't news to anyone.



What may be news to you, however, is that you can easily extend the 30-day Windows Vista grace period to 120 days. No hacks required. This is an official, supported operation directly from Microsoft.



To extend the grace period another 30 days, simply start a command prompt as Administrator, and issue this command:



slmgr -rearm



Reboot for the change to take effect, and voila, you have 30 more days. You can only extend three times, so the total grace period for a Vista evaluation is 120 days.

Run KMS on Server 2008, and which keys to use when activating Server 2008

Michael Greene: The documentation for volume activation 2.0 has been updated today for Server 2008.  You can find it here:

Running KMS on Server 2008 is functionally very similar to running it on Vista RTM.  You leverage slmgr.vbs to bring the service online and then clients find the server based on the DNS srv record.  BTW, Server 2008 KMS can be run within a virtual environment.



If you want to know which volume license keys to use when activating new machines running Server 2008, see page 19 in the Planning Guide and the FAQ.  You only need to put one key in your KMS, and it will handle requests from both Vista and Server 2008.  There are separate keys, and unique keys based on which version of server you need to activate.  Before you get excited - this is much easier to understand than it might first seem.  Simply decide the "top" version of Server 2008 you might install and then use that MKS key to activate the service on a 2008 server.  All versions in groups below that version will also activate off that key.  The groups are simple...
