What happens when a customer receives a MAK key and creates a single installation image? How is the upper limit of the MAK key accounted for?
For example, if a customer is using an Open_MAK_50 key, the system administrator creates an image, and users can install the image on a large number of computers. During this phase, the piracy solution has not yet triggered, and the MAK upper limit has not been reached. The MAK upper limit is reached when these computers try to activate by using Microsoft Activation services. Computers 1 through 50 successfully activate, but with computer 51, activation fails and the remaining computers receive Unlicensed Notifications.
