Windows Server 2022 Datacenter Activation Status Blank

I have the following problem with 1 host machine and a virtual machine both with Windows Server 2022 Datacenter.

I recently activated the evaluation license to the Datacenter version, but on both computers (Host and VM) it shows me an empty activation status

I am using the same Windows Server 2022 Datacenter license on both computers and it activates without problems, but it does not show the activation status in configuration.

Windows are installed and activated correctly, but this error has never happened to me before. Has something similar happened to someone?

    Are you asking about the host or guests? What's the result of slmgr /dlv ?

    Good afternoon DSPatrick,

    Here you have the result of using the command slmgr /dlv on PowerShell

    You didn't mention host or guest, but it looks good anyway.

    The problem with activation is on VM and host machine.

    Ok, the reason for that is the guest was activated using an AVMA product key which you can use since the host OS is DataCenter. So no worries
