Users are getting license warning and are disconnected after 60 minutes from WVD
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 I've tried that command to find the grace days, it says 469... 🙂 We are getting the license errors and MS Support confirmes we are indeed effected by this bug, but the errors are only in the event logs and users are not effected. Just a little curious about the 469 grace days...
