How to upgrade KMS server to new OS
We have KMS server running win 2012 r2, now we want upgrade to 2019 . We will install new server 2019 and install kms server . so we need backup what from old kms migrate to new server ?
- You can always install a new KMS server with your Microsoft KMS key, you don't have to keep the old server
If this server error hardware and can not start then we can delete computer in ad and install new one difference computer name then ok ?
Yes, basically the same steps as above. Not sure if I understand your concern....
- as my understand then old server need online to so that step 1-> 3 . but in this case if old server die then how ? we can install new server and install add key as normal ?
