Event ID 12293 on Windows Server 2008

[Eric Guzman]

Windows 2003 domain. Introduced the first Windows 2008 ent. 64bit server
into my domain. This is just a Windows 2008 member server that I'm using for
Virtualization with Hyper-V. I purchased a volume license copy of Windows
2008 Enterprise 64bit w/ Hyper-V. Server has been up for about 2 months now
and i just noticed event ID 122293 recently and this event ID is beining
generated daily for a couple of weeks. We don't forsee growing with Windows
2008 server for a while and Vista computers. So I don't think I need KMS and
just want to clear up this alert. What do I need to do?

Event ID: 12293
Description:
Publishing the Key Management Service (KMS) to DNS in the
"domain_name.local" domain failed. Info:hr=0x80072338

I have exactly the same situation in my network. Any news about this issue?

"The application event log will contain a 12294 event for each
successfully published domain and a 12293 event for each unsuccessful
domain publishing attempt. For the 12293 event, the failure code can
be diagnosed by running the following:
slui.exe 0x2a 0x<error code>". See the link to "Windows Vista Volume
Activation 2.0 Step-By-Step Guide" for additional information.
