Hello,
I have questions about migrating RD license server from 2012 R2 to 2019, I have
1 x Server 2012 R2 RDS license server with Server 2012 CALs (Enterprise agreement)
2 x Server 2012 R2 that do RDCB, RD gateway and web access roles.
13 x Server 2012 R2 Session host servers.
I want to upgrade them to Server 2019s.
First I created a Server 2019 with RDS License server role, and tried to migrate CALs to it, it asked for Enterprise agreement numbers, so I added and selected "Server 2019" CAL type and the migrator complained that it could not delete the CALs from the source server.
So I removed it and Added again as Server 2012 Types and it removed the CALs from the source license server.
I added the RD License server to RD License server group and License server role from RDS Deployment over view.
I stopped RD license server service from the Server 2012 R2 RD license server, removed the 2012 R2 RD license server from the RD license server group, and RDS Deployment over view. When I connected to the RDS, License usage did not change but I was able to connect. As if RDS does not know about the new RD license server but still let me use it.
Questions:
1. As I have Enterprise agreement, I can use the CALs for 2019 type? What do I do to make sure I can add the CALs as server 2019 type.
2. Why the RDS license usage count did not change? I rebooted gateway/web/connection broker servers but the usage count did not change, what am I doing wrong?
