A few weeks ago we upgraded a suite of XP/Office 2003 to windows 7/Office 2010

 

Unfortunately we had the wrong key embedded in the image so we've run the following on each workstation:

 

Change product key to : Office Professional Plus 2010

VYBBJ-TRJPB-QFQRF-QFT4D-H3GVB

Use add remove programs...

 

rearm Office 2010 installation

Run C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatform\ospprearm.exe

 

@ C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14> run "cscript ospp.vbs /act"

 

We've checked that the CMID is different on each PC with the /dcmid command and that when opening any office application it is saying it is activated.

 

 

I've amended our network install folder for office 2010 and now changed the key to the correct one and one-off installs also activate successfully and generate a unique CMID.

 

HOWEVER,

I've just checked on our KMS server with the command : slmgr / dlv

 

and our current count for Office 2010 is only 10 even though we now have Office 2010 installed on around 70 workstations.

 

Should I be worried even though each PC with office 2010 is now saying it's activated?

 

My KMS server is Windows Server 2003.

Are there any commands I can run on the KMS server to see past activations and check which machines are currently the "ten"?

Not sure if this is of any help or use but when doing a client install of office 2010 out our place I had to

 

1. Flush and re register dns ( ipconfig /flushdns and ipconfig /registerdns ) which is the equivelant of doing a repair on the connection ( a repair does a few more things which may help )

 

2. Run As on the setup.exe / msi as a domain admin ( right click on installer file --> run as --> enter in domain admin credentials )

 

If I did not do both of the above then it gave me an error relating to an xml file but it was not the xml file it was the fact that the client could not reach or communicate with the kms server.

Download and install VAMT 2 and use it to scan your network to check the licence keys are ok on your machines. You can then use it to re-activate those that are having problems.

we have just started using KMS licensing on a server and i did notice an odity, we have a couple of Win 7 clients on the network, the KMS was setup ok but the server wasnt being reached from the clients, turned out that one of the Win 7 boxes had registered itself in DNS as the KMS host for the network.

 

had to manually edit the KMS entry in DNS to reflect the correct location.

if you have made an image with office on it you may need to re-arm office 2010 for KMS count

 

i had that problem!

 

Yes please see original post, we are doing:

rearm Office 2010 installation

Run C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatform\ospprearm. exe

As we set-up each PC.
