How to cleanly uninstall the Key Management Service from within the KMS host?
-
Friday, November 16, 2012 3:22 PMI had used the command line "cscript C:\windows\system32\slmgr.vbs /ipk<KmsKey>"to install and start the Key Management Service on a server which had Windows Server 2008 R2 running on it. And I did this just for a purpose of test.
The server is a member server of a domain.
Now I want to uninstall the Key Management Service, how to?
Thanks!

Friday, November 16, 2012 5:59 PM Uninstall the KMS host key first by running the following command:
slmgr –upkThen install the default kms key by running the following command:
slmgr /ipk [KMS Client Setup Key]
Delete the record from the DNS:
Open DNS console:
Expand _tcp node under the domain.com. There will be a record _VLMCS. Delete this record.
Now The KMS server is uninstalled.
