Problems adding Defender for Business Server to a 2019 Windows server.
Hi.
We recently purchased a one-year subscription to Microsoft Defender for Business Servers through a retailer.
I've onboarded a Windows Server 2019 device using a PowerShell script, following Microsoft's guidance, since the server is not enrolled in Intune. The onboarding process appears to have been successful, as confirmed by event logs. However, the device isn't visible in the Microsoft Defender portal. Additionally, the Defender for Business Servers license isn't assigned to the device in the Office 365 admin center.
Is it possible that I'm missing a configuration somewhere in one of the Admin centers (Defender, Office 365, etc.) so the license can be applied to the device?
What additional steps might be required to ensure the device is visible in the Microsoft Defender portal and the license is assigned correctly?
