ow, didn't read the second part &quot;Clear the licensing out of compliance status&quot;, that is normal behaviour. SBS 2008 checks from time to time to see that you're not out of compliance. Out of compliance checks involve<br />
additional checks such as other SBS boxes, ... So nothing to worry about.<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
It is my understanding that you no longer have to install your extra CALs, you just need to file them in a safe place. If this is true, why is my SBS 2008 box giving me a daily event saling &quot;Clear the licensing out of compliance status.&quot; in the operation log. The event id is 502 with a source of Windows Small Business Server 2008. <br />
<br />
Please advise how do I correct this. <br />

sbs 2008 Licensing

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
