Windows 11 NVIDIA Virtual GPU No License

Infrastructure that is working fine:
ESXi 7.0.3, with T4’s running Nvidia 17.5 (550) drivers
DLS 3.4.1 License System handing out RTX Virtual Workstation licenses
Win10 desktops

We want to deploy Win11 24H2 desktops - the driver is loaded and the T4 shows working in device manager, but they are unable to get a license using the same host and license system as above. 17.5 was the first version to support Win11 24H2 and we tried going to 18 but that broke our Win10 desktops - couldn’t get a license.

Anyone got this working?

Same here.
DLS 3.4.1,
Host is ESXi 8 with 570.133.10 (18.1) host driver (previously on 550.144.02 / 17.5)
Existing windows 10 guests and Windows 11 24H2 running 553.62 (17.5) get licensed.

But a Windows 11 24H2 guest cannot get its license neither with 572.60 (18.0) nor with 572.83 (18.1).

We upgraded the hosts just yesterday so I did not have the time to make more extensive trials on Windows 10 guests with 18.0 or 18.1 drivers.

and you created a new token already?

Do you mean a client configuration token? No, we have been using the same token two years now. It works for 17.5.
Thanks!

Yes, for 18.x you need to recreate the token.

Thanks for your response!
One last question: If I recreate the token, will the clients who are using the old token be able to acquire licenses in the (near) future or will it be necessary to replace the client config token in all existing clients?

Only the clients with vGPU 18 should require the new token
