I have a KMS key for Windows 8.1 and Server R2 which I got with my MSDN. Now could anyone tell me if I need to install it on Server 2012 R2? How?
You have a KMS host key? or a gVLK (default KMS activation key)? I would advise not sharing it with people if you have a host key. The KMS PID would likely quickly get you in trouble if you did. AFAIK installing a host key on server requires a kb file download. If you had a host key it would likely mention that you needed to download a certain kb file.
Yah be careful with that, esp if it's one for a company you work for. Don't share it with these vultures or they'll have activators coming out the ass using a vm and your KMS PID will get you in hot water if there's any sort of new whitelisting or WAT updating integration introduced in v6. ...and definitely don't give it to me. I am a pirate.
Should have wrote this: "Don't... tempt me Frodo! I dare not take it. Not even to keep it safe. Understand, Frodo. I would use this ring from a desire to do good... But through me, it would wield a power too great and terrible to imagine."
I guess it's obvious that KMS (Key Management Service) and MAK (Multiple Activation Key) can only be obtained from VLSC. Also the op doesn't reply to his questions or the comments posted by the other members.
Maybe a Clown need a new way to show what he's capable of (or not) because the Windows 8.1 game seems to be over for him and to Windows 9 is a long way to go!
Actually there is no difference, as both MSDN MAKs and VLSC MAKs are using the same groupid of 2618 and actid {354d964a-56e7-43c5-a93f-287a7a750bd4} (I referring here to 8.1, I didn't check the Windows 8/7 pkeyconfigs) . The only difference is the number of activations on it, dependent on the subscription level (MSDN have 20 activations, VLSC have dependent on the subscription level, counting from 20 to 500 or (rare high level Enterprise SA subscriptions) some thousands or millions of activation count). KMS Host keys (Volume:CSVLK) are available through VLSC only.
