Toothpaste two font free. Spellforce 2 gold edition free download free. Windows Server 2012 KMS Service Activation Posted on August 17, 2012 by workinghardinit Now we have the Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8 RTM bit form our Volume License we need to get some housekeeping done.

Since you are doing this for your home lab, simply use the evaluation copy of Windows Server. Microsoft provides the evaluation copy specifically to satisfy situations like you are describing.

The evaluation copy is good for 180 days before it expires. And it can be extended up to three times, each extension lasting 30 days.

That gives you 270 days of evaluation. Licensing is required for machines that meant to be run for business reasons (such as your physical host system). Evaluation copy is meant for use in labs. Evaluation copies are automatically activated the first time they gain access to the internet. If you do not provide access to the internet, they expire after 10 days.

And, since you are dealing with evaluation copies of the OS, they contain their own licensing, completely separate from the host environment. This removes any limitations that may be in place on the host environment, such as how many Windows Server VMs you can run simultaneously.
