TravisRoberts I appreciate the thought, but I have 3 servers and the other 2 are available in the app and work fine (I did go ahead and unsubscribe and resubscribe because I was hopeful). The documentation is also for the new WVD, as the client version in that article doesn't work for this version and the PowerShell cmdlet mentioned (Export-RdsRegistrationInfo) will not return data for any of my hostpools: "RegistrationInfo does not exist for HostPoolName XXX".
Appreciate the quick response though. Keep 'em coming.

unfortunately we have the same problem. 2 machines of one hostpool were stopped for more then 30 days and now it seems, that they were not registered anymore. we are also early adopters (dec 2019)
and the command (Export-RdsRegistrationInfo) to reregister the host agent is not working too with the same msg: "RegistrationInfo does not exist for HostPoolName XXX".
did you solve your problem?

Yes, I did the following day. Since no one ever replied, I forgot about this whole thread. I ended up spending a lot of time understanding what is never explained, which is how the back end piece actually works. It was never made clear in the ASM version, but is easier to understand in the ARM version, though little has changed.
While I do not remember the command I ran, I do remember bits and pieces. Coincidentally, last night I removed all users from our ASM model, as I built a new one to migrate to ARM, as it actually works as the original intention, and I am forcing the swap today (and surprisingly already 2 tickets within 45 mins, even though they were told to move over for 2 months).
So it appears, after a certain amount of down time, there is a cert that gets auto updated. You can literally add any server you want to the host pool, just by registering it. So all you need to do is find the correct command (I'll look when I get a chance), unregister the server from the host pool and re-register with the new cert (have to generate a new key).
