Managing Win 2012 license keys
Hi,
I have a few Windows 2012 servers and need to add another. Unfortunately I don't recall which license keys I used going to which servers. I don't want to assign a duplicate. I 'm assuming there is a way to manage this? What do I look at?
Thanks!

Built into Any Windows installation is slmgr (license manager). The command below will return 5 characters of the key, I think it is last 5.
May be helpful someday without having to install 3rd party
slmgr /dli
/dlv give additional licensing information
/? gives all options
Run from a command line and wait a few seconds for a widow to pop up with results.

That works too. I'm going to stuff this info into an Excel spreadsheet so I don't get lost in the future. Thanks!
