  • Dear Customer,

    Based on my research , please verify that you have purchased enough CALs for the Terminal Server license server and that the Terminal Server Licensing mode matches the type of CAL available on the license server. Terminal Server Licensing modes determine the type of CAL that a license server issues to a client.

     

    In Windows Server 2003, two types of CALs are available: Per User and Per Device. A Per Device CAL gives each client computer or device the right to access a terminal server that is running Windows Server 2003. A Per User CAL gives one user the right to access a terminal server from an unlimited number of devices. In this case, only one CAL is needed instead of a CAL for each device. Per User CALs, however, are not monitored by Terminal Server. This means that even though there is a Per User CAL in the license server database, the Per User CAL is not decremented when it is used.

    Hope this helps.

    Sincerely

  • Dear Tom Zhang,

     

    We purchased 254 Terminal Server User CAL in Yr 2007.  There are 8 of them using in one server in a store.  The type of expired 8 licenses are configured to Device CAL wrongly.  And the "Not Applicable" is the User CALs but it's the correct licenses.

     

    How can I transfer the wrong licenses from "Temporary Licenses" group to "Terminal Server Per User CAL Token" group?

     

    Uranus.
