Office rearm
This can happen if you forgot to rearm the Office 2010 suite before you deployed your new VMware View pool. The reason why your Microsoft Office applications will not activate is because the CMID (Client Machine ID) for the Office suite is the same across all of your virtual desktops. To confirm that you are indeed using the same CMID on multiple virtual desktops, you can run the following command on your virtual desktops to display the CMID:Ĭscript "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\OSPP.VBS" /dcmid You’ve made sure that your KMS server is installed, configured correctly, the proper KMS keys have been entered into your KMS server and Microsoft Office suite but still receive the following notification: You have just completed the deployment of a new pool of virtual desktops and this new pool is using a new KMS server set up to activate the Microsoft Office 2010 suite your virtual desktops have installed. Note that there are many reasons why Microsoft Office 2010 on your VMware View desktops may not activate so the following is only 1 of the many out there.
