Server 2008 standard license compliance
We just recently began supporting a 2008 server and can't seem to wrap our heads around this error that's causing the server to reboot every 7 days. Logs show that it is out of license compliance, but nothing we find validates this. WGA passed, it is the only server in the building, there are no trusts, there are 6 users. I thought about just disabling the Server infrastructure License service but didn't know the effects of this. Below are the related events I found. Has anyone seen anything like it before?Windows Server Standard FE SP1Thank you for any input!KennyID 38: The External Licensing Enforcement Load Checks detected a condition in your environment that is out of compliance with the licensing policy. This server will be automatically shut down if the issue is not corrected in 2 day(s) 23 hour(s) 0 minute(s). Please look for additional events for External Licensing Enforcement Load Checks to troubleshoot.ID 10: The licensing enforcement service could not load external checks because error code 0x80092003 occurred in function f1100.An error occurred while reading or writing to a file.

his error occurs when the server cannot finish checking the requirements for the root domain, forest trust configuration, or both. It usually happens when the server cannot connect to a domain controller. Sometimes this error occurs intermittently—if you close the error message and it does not recur within two hours, the problem is resolved. However, if the situation persists, the server will shut down 10 days after the first time the compliance check failed. Each time this error message occurs, it will state the actual time remaining before the server will shut down. If you restart the server after is has shut down because of noncompliance, the server will shut itself down again in 3 days.
