We have the 2 servers, which are legally licensed for W2k3 R2 32 or 64 bit , and they need to be rebuilt - so, we are between a 'rock and a hard place. This all really is very disconcerting - we basically need these servers as basic 'file servers,' so there's no need to put Windows Server on them and pay whatever upgrade, nor to use any our VLKs, since these already are legally licensed indiviually.
THIS is why people are "forced" to "work [around] the system," when the system fails to support what it, in essence, 'promised' to support. In short, it sounds like more rhetoric to FORCE people to "pay twice," and still I hear those rumblings that I read not long ago about "class action suit" against Microsoft and OEMs for failing to provide replacement media options in these types of cases - I did not follow the thread to see if it was pursued, but So, if you don't "ghost" them or otherwise image them , there's not much hope of recovery in these 'disaster-type' situations.
Dell 4th call to them said their "official tech support comments" that, since Server is 'end-of-life,' our only option is to find a Microsoft Partner or some of our colleagues at other companies who still have an OEM copy of the software Windows Sever R2 bit and that it would be fine to go that route, and that it will isntall fine with our Full-Package OEM Product Keys.
There is nothing illegal nor unethical about wanting to run or rebuild an operating system that we already paid for. Searching here on the Microsoft Site for CD media is going to get you no where unfortunately. What you can do is find a good torrent of the OS you are looking for, and then depending on the type of Product Key you have, you will need to potentially make some adjustments to the CD files before burning them. Different manufacturers of PC's have different predefined "code" in the installation media that allow the product keys that come with hardware to work.
A quick google search of what I've mentioned will bring up numerous links. Hope this helps. Office Office Exchange Server. Not an IT pro?
