Windows Server Activation using Automatic Virtual Machine Activation

What are Automatic Virtual Machine Activation (AVMA) license keys?

Automatic Virtual Machine Activation (AVMA) is a feature that handles the Windows Server activation process for an instance of Windows Server as a VM Guest on Hyper-V Server. 

AVMA lets you install virtual machines on a properly activated Windows server without having to manage product keys for each individual virtual machine, even in disconnected environments. AVMA binds the virtual machine activation to the licensed virtualization server and activates the virtual machine when it starts up. AVMA also provides real-time reporting on usage and historical data on the license state of the virtual machine. Reporting and tracking data is available on the virtualization server.

What are the Requirements to Use Automatic Virtual Machine Activation?

AVMA requires a Microsoft Virtualization Server running Windows Server 2019 Datacenter, Windows Server 2016 Datacenter, or Windows Server 2012 R2.
