Installing TS Licensing

  • 项目

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

Use the following procedure to install the TS Licensing role service by using Server Manager.

Note

The installation of the TS Licensing role service does not require the computer to be restarted.

Installation prerequisites

  1. Before you install the TS Licensing role service, join your computer to Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). If you want your license server to be available to terminal servers within a domain, you can join it to that domain. If you want your license server to be available across domains, you must join your computer to the top node in the forest.

  2. Before you install your license server, arrange for the credentials that are required to configure license server discovery scope:

    • For the license server to be accessible to terminal servers within the domain, you need to have domain administrator permissions.

    • For the license server to be accessible to terminal servers within the forest, you need to have enterprise administrator permissions.

Note

If you install the TS Licensing role service without the appropriate credentials, an error appears that describes the level of access necessary to complete the installation.

Install the TS Licensing role service

Following are the recommended configurations for a new TS Licensing deployment. If you are configuring a license server for an existing deployment, your choices may be different. Verify that the settings are correct before you install the new license server.
