Windows Server 2008 R2 licensing mode (not RDS)

Per this link

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/us/client-licensing.aspx

it states

Per Server Mode

If you choose this licensing mode, you have a one-time right to switch to the other licensing mode—Per User/Per Device mode. Your Windows CALs (of either type) would then be used in Per User/Per Device mode instead.

I can find no information on how to check what mode you are in or how to accomplish this one time change if necessary.   I do find lots of info on how to accomplish this on earlier versions of Windows Server but not this version. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance. Note - I am not asking about RDS licensing modes. I am asking about the basic server licensing mode for Windows CALS.

Someone else installed this server and I want to be sure they did not accept the default of "per server with 5 licenses" I want it set to "per seat" or "per user/per device".
