Server 2019 Activator Download

[Jonelle Rycroft]

Doesanyone know if these keys are simply too new? Might there be a patch or MCU required on older Windows Server O/Ss to be able to activate newer versions? I know there was a patch back in the day that 2012 R2 KMS servers needed to install before they could successfully activate 2016 servers.

@olsookie

No, nothing yet. My org's KMS server and this server are both patched up to Aug 2021 patches. After a reboot, it still won't activate. Issuing 'slmgr.vbs /ato' also returns the error code immediately.

@Michael Sovitzky-Reinders While it is true that your KMS server should be updated with the latest cumulative updates, it also needs to be updated with the Windows Server 2022 CSVLK which you obtain from the Volume Licensing program.

Now, I don't know why this took these unnecessary steps...I'll have to build out another test instance of WS2022, join it to our domain and see if it auto activates like it should within 1 reboot of Install.

There are 2 possible questions you're asking. I will assume one of them is:

If we enter the new WS2022 KMS key on our recent KMS Server, will this activate a (client) server running WS2012R2?

We can ignore this for now because we are setting allowedActivations to unlimited in our licenses. But if we decide in the future to go to limited activations we could have a problem with stray activations being left on the server in this error condition. I think it is clearly a bug in LexActivator. If that library is going to tell the client that it could not make an activation, then it really should not leave an activation on the server.

Did this ever get fixed? I have just tested with LexActivator 3.28.0 on Windows and we seem to have the same problem. Our licenses allow the default 60 second clock offset. If I set my system to 5 minutes different and try to activate, an activation is created on the server but I get an LA_E_TIME error in my client app. If I try to deactivate it simply returns LA_FAIL and the activation is left on the server until its lease expires.

I used a mildy modified version of the test app on github. The api calls I use are SetProductFile(), SetProductId(), SetCryptlexHost(), SetLicenseKey(), SetActivationMetadata(), Activate() and Deactivate().

What should happen is that the activation is never made on the server or is immediately deleted because of the invalid clock settings.

Server applications (web or windows) written with LEADTOOLS, require a LEADTOOLS Server Runtime License. The Server Runtime License must be activated on the host machine.

You can find both LEADTOOLS Server License Activators at the following location in the toolkit installation path: .\LEADTOOLS23\Support\Common\License\BinOtherwise, you can download the LEADTOOLS Server License Activators from the following URLs:

usage: -il "arg1" -ik "arg2" -ap arg3 [-o "arg4"]

arguments:

arg1: The path to the unactivated LEADTOOLS Server License file on the machine (Leadtools.lic)

arg2: The LEADTOOLS Server License Developer Key contained in the .lic.key file OR the path to the file on the machine.

arg3: The Activation Purpose flag. Can be one of the following: PRODUCTION, DR, QA, or BUILD.

arg4: The optional path to save the activated license file. If absent, it will overwrite the source license file.

The generated server .LIC file (i.e., the activated license), cannot be used with the LEADTOOLS Server License Activator. Only the original .LIC file emailed to you from LEADTOOLS can be used with the LEADTOOLS Server License Activator.

When i tried to activate ESET through the activation server it says that it is not reachable. We noticed that our firewall blocked the connection, we have created a policy to allow the broadcast. however it looks like that the client connects through IP address(52.160.70.199) and not DNS name(edf.eset.com).

You might want to provide a pcap log from activation for a check. You can create one either using Wireshark or by enabling advanced network protection logging in the advanced setup -> tools -> diagnostics.

We cannot guarantee that the IP address won't change in the future. In the future we also plan to add RSS for KB so you could subscribe to it and be informed if there's a change in the KB with a list of the IP addresses used by ESET products.

However, I was playing around in LFDS, creating and removing another licensing site for our "sandbox" environment (using Sandbox activation license), and when I attempted to re-add the license after a 2nd time, then the app threw me this error:

So then I noticed that my license count went from 3 to 2 for the Sandbox license count. So then I thought OK, it must just be a 1 time activation. So then I saw that we can use an .exe to deactivate a license:

ActivationToolNet4.exe -deactivate -key XXXXXXXXXXX

It appears your production license and sandbox license both have the same site GUID. LFDS will not allow two licensing sites to share a site GUID. It's recommended you have a second LFDS instance somewhere for the sandbox environment (and you can even use a duplicate of your production database there since the site GUID is the same).

Seconding Chase's question. One of, if not the main reason we've heard for wanting separate Sandbox licenses is to have a non-Production instance of LFDS to test upgrades/patches against prior to deploying those to Prod LFDS.

I would also say to avoid multiple licensing sites on the same LFDS unless absolutely necessary. While an officially supported configuration, multiple license sites introduce a whole class of potential edge cases that can and do show up in support cases.

Our plan was to have a failover cluster between our production LFDS server and sandbox server for the LFDS service (3-node failover: 1. prod LFDS server, 2. sandbox server with all Laserfiche products pointing to a test SQL environment, other than LFDS service (point to prod SQL), and 3. prod Laserfiche repo file share as tie-breaker), instead of wasting another production VM just to be on standby in case of LFDS service failure. Each VM will on their own VMWare host as well to add an extra layer.

That way, at least we are utilizing all servers at max capacity and at least have some form of a DR plan without going overkill on server resources. I tell myself if it fails over to a sandbox environment (which technically still points to production database) to at least keep the environment up and running, is better than nothing at all. At least it buys us time in the event of a failure.

If you're trying to use host resources efficiently while still having failover capability, you're best off configuring the LFDS service to automatically recover from failures in Windows (might be set by default), along with VMware HA (with or without DRS). Simplifies the configuration at every level. That guidance goes for all Laserfiche components.

When you install Tableau Server, you have to activate at least one product key, but we recommend that you activate all Tableau Server licenses found in the Tableau Customer Portal. Doing this activates the server, and specifies the number of license levels you can assign to users. For offline activations, you should activate the product key listed in the Offline Activation Id field in the Tableau Customer Portal. For information about finding the right key, see the Find the Correct Key to Activate on Tableau Server(Link opens in a new window) Knowledge Article.

There are also times you may need to activate licenses after Tableau Server is installed, for example, if you add capacity to your server, or get a new product key. If you don't have your product key, you can get it from the TableauCustomer Account Center.

In most cases, you can activate your key directly from Tableau Server, either during installation, or later, using the Tableau Services Manager (TSM) Licenses page, but there are some circumstances that don't allow you to do this. If your computer is not connected to the internet for example, or has a firewall that restricts access outside your intranet. In these cases you need to do an offline activation.

Beginning in Tableau Server version 2023.1.0, offline activation is supported for LBLM when your server is configured to use the Authorization-to-Run (ATR) service. You can only configure Tableau Server to use the ATR service during a new install. Upgrading customers with existing server installations need to install a new instance of Tableau Server version 2023.1.0 or later and restore a backup of their existing installation to that new instance. For information on this process, see Using a Blue/Green approach for upgrading Tableau Server. For more information about ATR service, see Activate Tableau Server Using the Authorization-To-Run (ATR) Service.

Beginning in Tableau Server version 2023.1, the Tableau licensing system supports two underlying licensing technologies. From an administrative perspective, the only configuration difference between the two systems is the file types that are generated and consumed for offline activation. The licensing technology is determined during the initial installation of Tableau Server, and cannot be changed after install.

We refer to the legacy (and still supported) version of licensing technology as FlexNet. The latest version of the technology is referred to as Server ATR. For more information, see Activate Tableau Server Using the Authorization-To-Run (ATR) Service. The following table describes the file naming nomenclature for each technology. The table also includes the generic reference.

If you attempt to activate your product key from the TSM licenses page and see a dialog that says online activation is unavailable, you can activate the key offline. The offline activation process must be completed once for each product key.

Create an OfflineActivationRequest file you will upload to the Tableau activation website. If your product key is not pre-filled in the form, enter your key and click Create Offline File to generate an OfflineActivationRequest file on the local computer.
