Windows 10: Windows Server 2019 Windows Activation Failed - 0x80072F8F

We had a data failure in our development environment and I'm in the process of rebuilding some of our dev servers. Two of the servers were copies of production servers so we can apply patches/updates to the dev environment and test functionality.In order to recreate these servers I made clones of the SAN volumes comprising their hard disks and created new virtual machines using these cloned copies. One server came up fine after renaming/removing and rejoining the domain but the older server I was not so fortunate.Windows will not activate. Any attempts I've made result in error code 0

Activate RDS CAL 2019 on Windows Server 2016

Dear Microsoft Support,



We recently purchased Windows Server RDS CAL 2019.

When we tried to install Windows Server RDS CAL 2019 into Windows Server 2016, it shows the license is not recognized and couldn’t install.



My questions are :

1. Can’t Windows RDS CAL 2019 be installed in Windows Server 2016? If can, how?
2. Is there any way to downgrade RDS CAL from 2019 to 2016 version?

Thanks,
