Because of this, it will likely result in meeting the minimum requirement for this key, as you probably already have 5 Windows Server R2. Once the key is activated, the first Windows 10 will be able to get an activation key from the KMS server. No need for the 25 Windows 10 threshold.
KMS key for Windows 10 is the same no matter which branch you are using. By default, Windows will look for a KMS server automatically if no key is specified in the setup or after Windows installation.

When you have the minimum 25 concurrents Windows 10 on your network, you can use VAMT to change the activation method of clients remotely instead of using the manual process describe earlier in this post. This will force a new try to find a KMS server for Windows 10 on the network.
KMS activation threshold is cumulative between OS types. Deployment and Management KMS is the recommended activation method for computers that are well connected to the organization's core network or that have periodic connectivity. MAK activation is the recommended activation method for computers that are offsite with limited connectivity or that cannot connect to the core network, even intermittently.
MAK Independent activation is via phone or online. Date is updated on client renewal. Activation threshold for Windows Vista is twenty-five physical computers.
For Windows Server it is five physical computers. Virtual KMS clients do not contribute to count but will activate once the threshold is met. Rearm is used to reset the activation timer back to OOB Grace. The MAK is stored in clear text in the unattended text file, as required by the setup process. Perhaps more keys for Office are forthcoming. In my own test environment, I have activated my Hyper-V host, a domain controller and a server used for hosting databases and a couple of other services.
I am now going to activate almost all of my virtual machines that I intend on keeping for any extended period of time. To enable reuse of activations in the event of redeploying Windows to a virtual machine, there are a couple of steps you should follow:. Reinstalling the same version and edition of Windows using the same product key on a machine should not count against your total activation account.
I am also fairly certain that when my current subscription expires on Wednesday and my new subscription kicks in, I will get a new set of keys — far more machines than I could get running on a single hypervisor with 12 GB of RAM. The tool itself is very simple. In the example screenshot below, I have imported a list of machines from Active Directory and this shows the status of machines that I have scanned:.
