How to check a Remote Desktop Services License server for XenApp / XenDesktop 7.x Windows Server 2012 application server

I’ve been asked several times since XenDesktop 7 was released when Windows Server 2012 R1 and R2 were supported operating systems about how can we check  Remote Desktop Services License server from a application server with a Windows Server 2012 R1 or R2 as the base OS:



Windows Server 2008 R2 doesn’t have this problem because is a Remote Desktop Session Host Configuration console is included during the install of the RDS services:


… but Windows Server 2012’s Remote Desktop Session Host:

… does not include any graphical consoles:

The only way to get a graphical user interface to configure the licensing server is to actually install the Remote Desktop Connection Broker:


chesk the Remote Desktop Licensing Mode on an RD Session Host Server

$obj = gwmi -namespace "Root/CIMV2/TerminalServices" Win32_TerminalServiceSetting
$obj.LicensingName
Per Device
$obj.ServerName
servername.abc.com
