Just a quick side question here...
Is there any way to offer licensing redundancy for just such an occurrence?
ie, is it possible to have the license server running with the same licenses
on more than one machine, and just start the service on the secondary
machine if the primary goes offline for some reason?

I'd WANT to call MS and get re-issues. It's like getting new licenses all
over again. If you've had some Windows boxes out there that didn't have
internal keys, that are no longer part of your environment, or they got
completely reloaded, then you have lost those keys. If you get re-issues,
you regain then.
I moved from NT domain to AD and we obviously had to call for re-issues.
Went from 140 of our TS CALs being used to now only using 19 of them. 99%
of our 98 machines had be replaced with XP Pro or 2000 Pro so we are now
uses the provided CALs. It's nice to regain those licenses.

I would suggest clean install and calling MS.
I think you can only pull TS licensing back from tape if you restore the
whole server. If you want to reistall OS and pull back just licensing server
I doubt it is going to work. When you activate TS Licensing server it
generates a unique string of characters. I think it will be different from
your original one when you reinstall OS.
But wait for others to reply. Somebody may have actually tried this.

Lost a DC yesterday that happened to be our TS licensing server. Anyone
know what the best path to restore is? Should I just clean reinstall and
call MS to reactivate new licenses or try to pull from tape?
Thanks in advance on this one!
