与Windows Vista一样,Windows Server 2008也拥有多种激活体系,包括Volume Activation 2.0和KMS.
批量激活大家几乎都已经了解,这里着重介绍KMS,KMS Key由KMS服务器分发,该服务器可以同时为Windows Server 2008,Windows Server Core 2008,Windows Vista颁发许可,管理员可以选择自动发现或定义KMS服务器(1688端口)来完成授权工作.
Windows Server 2008 KMS服务器端支持无限数量的客户端,但客户端必须在每180日内完成一次激活.
Windows Server 2003的KMS (Key Management) 需要一次更新以支持Windows Server 2008系统及其虚拟化产品,该更新将跟随2008版本一起发布.
KMS服务器和主机以及KMS客户端都支持虚拟机内运行.
