i2050 Licensing Server Upgrade from Windows Server 2008 to Windows Server 2012 2

[narsman]

Is there a procedure for upgrading an existing i2050 licensing server from server 2008 to server 2012. The 2012 server will be virtual.
Pretty sure I'll need to regen Keycodes for FQDN, etc, but need to find a written procedure if it exists.

Thanks in advance!

We actually just did this exact thing too. We had to get our vendor to regen the keys with the new file as you described. I'm not 100% if there is a written procedure.

Sharky,

Were you able to just upgrade the server to 2012 with the i2050 Licensing Server still installed and then add new key codes or was it more involved?

We actually stood up a new server and had both running simultaneously with separate keycodes. I feel like an inplace upgrade might be easier barring you use the same FQDN/IP address for the server.
