My organizations KMS host computer was activated by using a Windows Server 2008 KMS key. Can I use that same computer as a host to deploy Windows Server 2008 R2?
Existing KMS hosts installed on Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Vista must be updated to support activation of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 in addition to Office 2010, Project 2010, and Visio 2010. This update is available through Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=151433), the Microsoft Download Center (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=189018), and Windows Volume Activation (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=184668). After installing the update, you can install the Windows Server 2008 R2 KMS key on the host and activate.
