SCOM 2012 has expired, how to activate?
Our evaluation period of SCOM 2012 has expired, rendering the program itself useless because it cannot connect to the server. However, we now have a key we can use to activate the program.. how can we activate it if the program no longer "works"? Any and all help is appreciated, thank you.

You have to roll back your system date to which your eval version was working. Now, to set the product key, use the Set-SCOMLicense cmdlet in PowerShell. To use the Set-SCOMLicense cmdlet you need to use elevated permissions. (Run as Administrator). 1. Open PowerShell as an Administrator 2. Load the OperationsManager Module (import-module operationsmanager) 3. Connect to your ManagementGroup (New-SCOMManagementGroupConnection) 4. Use Set-SCOMLicense -ProductId "yourlicensekey 5. To check if changes were executed run Get-SCOMManagementGroup | ft skuforlicense, version, timeofexpiration a Note: This may require a reboot after running in order to register correctly. For more information on the Set-SCOMLicense cmdlet see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh920237.aspx Regards, Ravi
