RMS Client Activation

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

When you use a Rights Management Services (RMS) version 1.0 client with no service pack installed for the first time, the RMS-enabled client contacts the Microsoft Activation service over the Internet to receive its machine certificate, which identifies the computer as trusted by RMS. If the activation URL is not available when the client attempts to activate, the activation process fails.
