@i3 you do not install server 2012 r2 onto the hardware. You install Hyper-V Server 2012 R2

@Jimmy9008 said in Microsoft Licensing... Old Agreements...:

Folks,

Hopefully you can help with this… In our VLSC centre, we have previous ‘expired’ agreements.

One agreement had an end date of 30/6/2012; in this agreement, although the status of the agreement is now ‘expired’, we purchased:

• 2 x P71-01088 in 2009.

• 2 x P71-01088 again in 2010.

• And 2 x P71-01088 yet again in 2011.

Since P71-01088 is 'Windows Server Datacenter Edition with 1 Year SA' (perpetual I think????), does that mean that we would still own these three licenses now and can legally still use them/activate now?

They don’t look like annual subscriptions to me but one off purchases with SA (the SA would be expired obv).

These were never used, and are perpetual right? So we even now still own them even though the specific agreement has expired. Could we buy servers and license these three copies of Datacenter on to them?

As each had SA, each are allowed up to 2008 R2 max going by the purchase dates?

(Not saying we will, but in theory, are we legal?)

These were purchased by previous IT and just want to know where I stand with them...

Thanks again, (also posted on Spiceworks)

Thanks,
Jim

Depending on exact purchase dates, the 2 in 2011 might qualify for server 2012 (not 2012 r2).

You are correct that you own the licenses perpetually. SA is only for upgrades during the life of the SA.

Literal excerpt from a ticket.

Need your assistance with the following connection for the equipment to be delivered and installed Dec. 09 

Due to the built-in servo amplifier and frequency converter the 
machines can not be connected directly to an IT network. 
The IT network must be converted to a TN-S network by an isolating 
transformer. The machine is connected to the TN-S network.

This is going to a manufacturing machine, but can anybody shed some light as to what I am looking at here?

Why are they using an isolating transformer rather than just a standard flux capacitor?

That is electrical terminology. TN-S is the typical 2 wire plus ground standard in the US. It has nothing to do with networking. To confuse things, they do use the term network to mean electrical network.

I signed up with Atera (trial) to give it a whirl and see if it would be very beneficial or not.

I added the windows client easy enough, but they are lacking in the Linux space. I at least wanted to get a monitor on the the EdgeRouter for the site I am testing this on. Atera use SNMP for this purpose. But to set it up , you need to know the OID.

So I logged into the router and ran snmpwalk twice to get everything into a text file. There may be a simple way to list the OID description and number at once, but i don't know it.

Note: this command returns about 7900 rows of data.

snmpwalk -v 2c -c public -On 10.1.1.1 >>oidnum.txt
snmpwalk -v 2c -c public 10.1.1.1 >>oidname.txt

Then I took the resulting files into a quick spreadsheet to search for what I wanted.

I was then able to browse the spreadsheet and find a list of OID I wanted to pop in here.

A lot of online communities have an opt-in gift exchange. Should we get one organized?

There are websites to do all that now.

Debating whether not I want to install the ERLs tonight.

I know a guy that can be available to fix what you break.

Server 2012 (maybe R2?) added the ability to have a backup/failover DHCP server in the Windows world.

But this is a waste of time.

Make a backup of your DHCP server config manually if you are worried about the VM hosting the service going south but not being restored.

Exactly. There is no inherent value in any currency except the value people place on it.
