Demo VM shuts down unexpectedly

Hi, I have spun up an AX2012 R3 demo VM on Azure using LCS. After about 45 minutes the VM shuts down with no warning? I've tried using a new Azure subscription and the same thing happens making me believe there is something wrong with the VM. It seems to do this very consistently after 45 minutes. Has anybody else run into this? Thanks!

Hi Dan,

Probably the Windows license has expired. You can rearm the license to extend it. There is a document on customersourcr and partnersource how to do this. You can also search on internet how to do this rearm.

Also you can change the license key with an own license.

Hi Dan,

As Andre mentioned, you may need to rearm your VM if Windows license has expired. I use the command from the following blog post and it worked for me:

organicax.com/.../windows-rearm

Please let me know if you have further queries.

Thanks,

Baber.

I tried following the steps and entering the following the command line:

slmgr.vbs –rearm

And received the following error from the Windows Script Host:

Error: 0xC004F025 Access denied: the requested action requires elevated privileges

Any ideas?

Many thanks

Hi,

we are facing the same Shut down issue in our D365 Demo VM, which is with Windows Server 2016 Datacenter Edition of OS.

Please let me know if we can use the same Command mentioned here to extend the OS trial period.

Thanks

You should have opened a new thread instead of resurrecting long-dead threads for a different AX version.
