Hi you all
Today we gonna talk again about the DISM again wich has the ability to do a lot of cool things with our images on sccm 2012 or WDS / whatever 🙂
Scenario :
We have a Windows Server 2012 Standard Edition , we need to change it to a datacenter edition , as you can see there are some differences about them
Aditional info about R2 Version
This trick works fine on Windows Server 2012 R2 , but you cannot change between Server 2012 datacenter to any of R2 editions without upgrading !! you must upgrade it first to R2 System , and then change it between editions () same to windows server 2008 R2 editions 🙂
1. Open CMD admin console
Run :
dism /online /set-edition:ServerDatacenter /productkey:<Datacenter key, e.g. AAAAA-BBBBB-CCCCC-DDDDD-EEEEE>/AcceptEula
This will change your windows server edition
To know wich versions you are able to upgrade your system you can also check this command:
dism /online /get-targeteditions
Enjoy!
