Hi - We are working on getting Win 10 LTSC 2019 and Instant Clones working ( JMP ).
We are just using normal KMS on a 2012 R2 server.
None of our Instant Clones are Activating Windows.
Appears there was a snafu ( links below ) that could have been stopping it.
I am applying updates to our KMS 2012 R2 server right now to see if that helps.
Does AD-BA appear to work better w/ Instant Clones ?.. than the 'normal' legacy KMS ?.
Am i Forced to goto AD-BA if i use Win 10 LTSC 2019 Instant Clones ?
thank you ,
Also sounds like if you install a 2019 server and add the 2019 KMS key that Win 7 machines will fail to license after that.

Some VDI solutions also require that new clients activate during creation before they are added to the pool. In this scenario, ADBA can eliminate potential VDI issues that might arise due to a KMS outage.
