Answer 1

Hi Nagarajan K,

you can follow these steps:

1. Open the Server Manager on your Windows Server 2019.
2. Click on the "Local Server" option on the left-hand side of the window.
3. Under the "Properties" section, you will see the "Installed RAM" and "Processor" information.
4. Click on the "License: Registered" link next to the "Processor" information.
5. This will open the "Activate Windows" window. Click on the "Activate" button.
6. Enter the additional core license product key that you have in your hand.
7. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the activation process.

Once the activation process is complete, your Windows Server 2019 will be licensed for the additional 2 cores.

Hope it helps.

Best regards,

Lei

Answer 3

Hi Muhammad Fahad4,

when you activate additional licenses, Windows Server will recognize the cumulative total number of cores that are licensed. The system keeps track of all licensed cores, so you do not have to worry about manually tracking each core license once they are activated.
