Need to add PIDKEY option for Volume License product #258

Closed TheBaban closed 6 years ago

TheBaban commented 6 years ago

When deploying a VL product (C2R-P) we need to put the GVLK to activate using KMS. This is documented in the following article:

The PIDKEY could also be used to deploy MAKKEY. so we should offer both chose. pre-enter the correct GVLK to use for the product or ask to enter a MAKKEY.

@TheBaban This is support in the XML Generator as well as the Edit-OfficeConfigurationFile script. In PowerShell, you will need to generate an xml file first. Then, use the cmdlets in Edit-OfficeConfigurationFile.ps1 to add the volume licensed editions of Visio and Project. For example:

. .\Edit-OfficeConfigurationFile.ps1

Add-ODTProductToAdd -TargetFilePath $Configfile -ProductId ProjectProXVolume -PIDKEY xxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxx
