Useful procedure for changing the product version of windows 2008 r2 standard to enterprise without reinstalling from media.
To determine the installed edition, run:DISM /online /Get-CurrentEdition 
To check the possible target editions, run:DISM /online /Get-TargetEditions 
Finally, to initiate an upgrade, run:DISM /online /Set-Edition:<edition ID> /ProductKey:XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX 
For example, to upgrade to Enterprise from a downlevel version, run:DISM /online /Set-Edition:ServerEnterprise /ProductKey:YOUR SETUP KEY
