I am researching deploying Windows 10 Education in a school district, which is already using Server 2008 R2, and the KMS for 2008 R2.
The district is using a KMS from an older Academic Select agreement back in 2009 or so. It works, and I don't want to risk breaking it, as it KMS for a few hundred school computers.
,
Windows 10 KMS deployment needs the key named "Windows Srv 2012R2 DataCtr/Std KMS for Windows 10" and a patch for 2008 R2 servers. I see it in the VLSC.
However, the KMS key does not itself have an activation count in the VLSC like the MAK keys. There nothing in the activation count column of the VLSC for any KMS.
This seems weird to me. Do activation counts apply to KMS servers? Or does this indicate something is wrong and I cannot use the Windows 10 KMS server key?
