ArcESU

The aim of this repo is to provide an automatic way of provisioning ESU licenses querying eligible VMs on Azure ARC.

Steps

  1. Onboard your VMs on Azure ARC. Follow the documentation for at-scale onboarding.
  2. Download Azure Powershell modules on your PC and use the Connect-AzAccount cmdlet or use Azure Cloud Shell to upload the following files.
  3. Review and run ESULicenseProvisioning.ps1 to provision 1 license for each eligible VM. Make sure to change $dryRun to $false and $targetLicenseState to "Activated" before running the script.
  4. Review and run ESULicenseLink.ps1 to associate each license to the corresponding VM. Make sure to change the $subscriptionId and $resourceGroupName before running the script.

Now you can enjoy Extended Security Updates on Windows Server 2012 VMs!

Attention: The Graph API has a limit of 1000 results, if you have more than 1000 VMs onboarded to ARC you may change the Graph query
