I do have the cals - I'll make the changes and report back shortly. Will I need to reboot the server once the changes are made or will a gpupdate work ok?

There is no need to reset the grace period if you do in fact have CALs. Install them in License Manager on your licensing server, activate them and then edit the RDS deployment properties to point to the licensing server. You need to do this even if your licensing service is on the same server. 2

The licensing diagnoser tool will tell you if you have a configuration problem. You should check Licensing Manager and see if licenses are being issued. I believe a license is only issued after the 2nd time a device or user connects. 0

It's still popping up but I think I forgot to set the type of CAL. Is one better than the other?

Just like Server CALs, you purchase what is appropriate for your environment. User CAL licenses a user to use the service from any device. Device CAL licenses that device to access the service regardless of who the user is. That said, if you are in a Workgroup environment, you have to use Device CALs. The nice thing with 2019 is you can convert User to Device and vice versa. You could not do that before. However, you need to choose what matches the CALs you purchased in order to install and activate them. Afterwards you can convert them. 0

In RD licensing manager I have 8 Per user cals. I'll update the policy to set that. I assume I'll need to reboot a time or two? 0

If you're using Group Policy to apply the licensing server info you'd have to force an update from a command prompt or reboot if you don't want to wait for the refresh. 1

Reset 120 day RDS Grace period on 2016 and 2019brandon.lee 4 minutes read If you have a home lab environment or other lab that you continually test various solutions, licensing and trial expiration is a challenge that you constantly tend to run into. It is just part of the fun of lab environments. While most trials are fairly “hard and fast” and don’t allow you to reset the trial expiration, if you work with Microsoft Windows Server and Remote Desktop Services (RDS), there is a “hack” that allows you to effectively reset the expiration of Remote Desktop Services grace period where you can essentially rewind the clock on your RDS licensing if you are making use of this role inside your lab environment. In my lab environment, I am making use of Windows Server 2019 for my Windows workloads. In this post, I will show how to reset 120 day RDS Grace period on 2016 and 2019 Windows Server. Let’s see.
