Hi there,

I've installed brand new server with WS2022 Standard Version :

  • One HyperV Host (Windows activated online with no issues)
  • First VM (WS 2022 Standard online activation no issues) with AD/DS Role
  • Second VM with a Sage App Server. I can't activate this one online and slui 4 doesn't work for phone activation.

Both VM have been created on the same time, 1 month ago. NTP time.windows.com is set up on the host. Both of the machines on the same time zone with the correct time.

Fully updated OS, version 21h2, last update : KB5022291.

I've tried the usual stuff : sfc, dism, slmgr, slui.... Nothing works, I still have 0x87E10BC6 error when trying to activate Windows.

The network is fully operationnal, internet UP.

Is someone can help me ?

Thanks !

    Ok, if it is licensed installation media then you could simply do, using the same host product key.

    slmgr /ipk xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx
    slmgr /ato

    What installation media was used? (licensed, evaluation) What product key channel is the Server 2022 license? (OEM, retails, volume)

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query.

    Kindly follow the steps provided below to resolve your issue.

    Have you checked if the KMS host is updated as per below Microsoft KB? Also I would suggest temporary disabling the firewall and check that the network connection between client and host is correct.
