How can we recover COA
Hi, we have two servers that we believe came with WS2019 licenses, but we can't find the COAs, and the servers are out of warranty. We need to activate the WS19 on these servers. How can we find the keys/COA? Thanks.

Hello,
if you buy a Windows OEM with your Dell PowerEdge than you have a COA at the top of your server (lower left). Those OEM are always factory installed and you can order the server with extra CD Media or only with recovery images which is stored within the Dell Digital Locker.
IF you buy a Windows ROK "together" with your Server than COA, Key and Media comes in an extra Package.
Regards,
Joerg
