  you won't see per user licenses get handed out.  for per user, it just checks 
that a valid licenses server is there and that's the end of it.  The downisde 
is that if that server goes down, users can't connect where with a per device, 
if the server is down but the device has a valid token, it's good to go.  

  There's a good write up about TS Licensing at msterminalservices.org by 
Michael Burke

    Great question.  The old TS Lic server was setup with per device licenses.  
We converted our licenses to per user and installed the per user on the new lic 
server.  I just noticed that we have given out 2 temporary per device lic 
recently on the new server. 

    Thanks!

      did you set up the new one per device or per user?

        We recently installed a new MS TS Licensing service.  We activated our 
licenses and eventually turned off the old TS Licensing service on the old 
server.  It has been a few weeks now and still none of our clients have 
received a license from the new server.  I found a utility (script) that you 
can run on your TS servers to determine (and change) your current TS License 
server that it is using.  All our Citrix servers are pointing to the new server 
when I run this script, but still no users are getting licenses from it. 

        Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can troubleshoot this?  We 
noticed (before that change) that several client licenses were about to expire 
so we would expect that some licenses would have been issued by now.  However, 
when I look at TS licensing it shows that 0 have been issued. 

        Thank you,
