Rebuild the RD Licensing Database

Applies To: Windows Server 2008 R2

You can use the Managing RDS CALs Wizard in Remote Desktop Licensing Manager to rebuild the RD Licensing database on a license server that is running Windows Server 2008 R2. You cannot rebuild the RD Licensing database of a license server that is running an earlier version of Windows Server.

Warning

Rebuilding the RD Licensing database will delete any RDS CALs that are currently installed on the license server. After the RD Licensing database is rebuilt, you must reinstall your RDS CALs onto the license server. Therefore, before you rebuild the RD Licensing database on a license server, ensure that you have your RDS CAL purchase agreement documentation available.

There are three methods by which you can rebuild the RD Licensing database on a license server:

• Rebuild the RD Licensing Database Automatically

• Rebuild the RD Licensing Database by Using a Web Browser

• Rebuild the RD Licensing Database by Using the Telephone
