Sascha Stops This is a known issue and we are updating our documentation while working on a fix. The fix will take a couple of weeks, probably looking at early 2020. I'd recommend to redeploy the 1903 (or 1909) hosts where the grace period will be long enough to bridge the gap until the fix is pushed via Windows Update. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Sascha Stops Any luck? Supposedly you can reset the timer by deleting a GracePeriod registry key (under 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\RCM\GracePeriod').
That might hold us over until a fix is released: https://www.hyper-v.io/reset-120-day-rds-grace-period-windows-server-2016-without-gui/
For those debugging this, we found that we have only 15 days remaining before we hit this bug. You can see remaining time by running, in an elevated powershell:
(Invoke-WmiMethod -PATH (gwmi -namespace root\cimv2\terminalservices -class win32_terminalservicesetting).__PATH -name GetGracePeriodDays).daysleft
Nicholas Semenkovich Hello, I have been told by the support engineer that there might be long term problems doing this. But I guess it does not matter if we rebuild now or later.
I might give that a try one of the two host groups.
Thank you for your response.
Best regards
Sascha
