Question

My requirement

I want to purchase windows 11 pro Volume license under Open Value Program along with KMS to support my local activation process
(KMS is only available if I purchase through Open Value prg)

My re-seller suggested

Purchase windows 11 Pro with CSP (I will get MAK)

Upgrade above license with the Open Value agreement to get KMS

Problem/Query

1. Is this the correct way to obtain/purchase Volume license along with KMS ? if Yes - Help me with further queries - if No - share me the proper way to purchase (re-sellers doesnt know much so dont refer to them)
2. How can I link my CSP with KMS(Open value agreement) - Reseller doesn't know this
3. To purchse CSP - Re-seller has SKU/part code - DG7GMGF0CGSH
4. Please share SKU/part_code for Open value program - windows 11 pro - re-sellers doesn't get the same from any distributor from India - so sad but true.

Looking forward to have detail resposne for each my query

Thanks a lot in advance

Hello there,

I do not think this is the right way to purchase the Volume license with KMS. The WindowsLicensing configuration service provider is designed for licensing related management scenarios. Currently, the scope is limited to edition upgrades of Windows 10 client devices, such as Windows 10 Pro to Windows 10 Enterprise.

You can check this article to get the license https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/licensing/default

Volume Activation provides two different models for completing volume activations. Either or both key types may be used by customers to activate systems in their organization:

Key Management Service (KMS) allows organizations to activate systems within their own network.
Multiple Activation Key (MAK) activates systems on a one-time basis, using Microsoft's hosted activation services.
