User mode licensing is a bit buggy.
We have an outstanding case with MS because the licensing mode resets its=
elf every now and again, and ends up in "per device" mode (it just looses=
the setting, and this is the default). It has stabilised since we've red=
uced the number of application installs and reboots as the environment ge=
ts more mature.
MS have promised a fix for the next service pack.
In the mean time, we have a few per-device licenses installed on our lice=
nse server, and I run a script that check the licensing mode on all serve=
rs every now and again to make sure they've not reverted back to "per dev=
ice" mode. This works fine for us.
The ONLY way to change it is to log on to each server affected and change=
the licensing mode to "per user"
This script will tell you the licensing modes of all computernames you ca=
re to put in the array statement.
-----Start Script.vbs-----
On Error Resume Next
Dim arrCompnames
arrCompnames =3D Array("Comp1","Comp2")
For Each strComputer in arrCompnames
Set objWMIService =3D GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\=
cimv2")
Set colItems =3D objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_Termina=
lServiceSetting",,48)
For Each objItem in colItems
Wscript.Echo "" & objItem.LicensingName & " " & objItem.Licensin=
gType & " " & objItem.ServerName
Next
Next
-----End Script.vbs-----

Subject: [THIN] 2003 per user licensing
I have a customer that went with 2003 licensing and we put it in per
user mode. Today I got a msg that my temp TS license will expire. I
looked and it is not handing out the installed licenses but is handing
out temp licenses like it was still per computer. anyone have an idea?=20
