RDP – Configuring License server manually
There might be situation when you want to configure License server on the RD Session Host or on the RD Virtualization Host manually since you do not have any RD Connection Broker in your environment. You have already configured RD Session Host server or Virtualization Host Server as required and now you want to configure the License server which is already installed and configured with licenses. All you are left to do is configure the License Server and the Licensing mode on the corresponding RD session Host or Virtualization Host servers.
Note: The following commands must be ran from an Administrative PowerShell prompt.
To configure the license server on RDSH/RDVH:
$obj = gwmi -namespace "Root/CIMV2/TerminalServices" Win32_TerminalServiceSetting $obj.SetSpecifiedLicenseServerList("License.contoso.com")
Note: “License” is the name of the License Server in the environment
To verify the license server configuration on RDSH/RDVH:
$obj = gwmi -namespace "Root/CIMV2/TerminalServices" Win32_TerminalServiceSetting $obj.GetSpecifiedLicenseServerList().SpecifiedLSList
To change the licensing mode on RDSH/RDVH:
$obj = gwmi -namespace "Root/CIMV2/TerminalServices" Win32_TerminalServiceSetting $obj.ChangeMode(value) - Value can be 2 - per Device, 4 - Per user
To validate the licensing mode on RDSH/RDVH:
$obj = gwmi -namespace "Root/CIMV2/TerminalServices" Win32_TerminalServiceSetting $obj.LicensingType $obj.LicensingName
