Different vSphere in 1 vCenter license

1. we have the following items purchased for our next project.

vSphere with operation management standard for 1 CPU x 6 (3 guests)

vSphere with operation management company for 1 CPU x 6 (3 guests)

standard server for vSphere vCenter 5 1 5 x

2. my question is 2 different vSphere license can be managed under single vCenter Server?

or we should purchase another license of vCenter server?

Thank you.

Hi and welcome to communities,

You can manage all these licences in the same server vCenter Server.

You could even mix the hosts with different licenses in the same cluster (you can use the functions that are known but on all hosts in the cluster).

  • vSphere and vCenter license price is based on the YEAR?

    Hello

    Even if I already know as the product of vSphere and so forth and I am familiar with other virtualization technologies (I will avoid to mention here), I would like to ask about the license costs.

    Currently, we use various stand-alone vSphere servers (sometimes evaluation license and a free license for 5.5), but I would like to have vMotion Metro and subnet rather than in private solutions like 'Veeam' quick migration, etc.

    I went to see the costs... which are generally extremely high, but then I realize that the cost is basic 1 year or 3 years, which means that all VMWare license costs are billed ANNUALLY?

    I mean, if I have 3 hosts ESXi and a cVenter with cost € 4000 will be € 4000 per year? I think it's crazy.

    Can anyone confirm?

    Concerning

    Hey,.

    When you buy the license first, you pay X amount, which includes the license to base 1 or 3 years Support and subscription (SnS).

    After this time, you pouvez renew your SnS for amount Y. For vSphere, one year basic Support is about 10% of the initial report and if I remember correctly.

    But you don't have to renew the SnS, your software will continue to work.

    SnS assets allows you to call VMware and leader in applications for support and very important: you can upgrade your license to the new major version keys when it comes out.

    If for example you can improve your keys of vSphere vSphere 5 6 keys subsequently.

  • vCenter Licensing Question

    We are currently conducting environment vSphere with vCenter Server 5 5 (using the VCSA).  My vSphere, ESXi licensing have the right to upgrade to vSphere 6, but is not my vCenter license.  After further review, we have seen that the SnS support contact us on our vCenter license had expired in January 2015, so we went ahead and got that renewed back support.  My question is, now that we have renewed the support we may update this license vCenter vCenter license 5 6 or we will have to buy a new license of vCenter 6 new?  I checked my VMware Licensing Portal and this shows that we have supported on vCenter 2018 license, but I don't see any option upgrade to this topic.  Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to the community,

    as far as I know all the licenses that are (or were taken over at the time a new version was released) by an active subscription can be upgraded. When you select "Update license keys" in the drop down menu "I want", you should be able to select and upgrade your vCenter Server license.

  • vCenter license migration.

    Hi all

    I'm n process of installing a new server vCenter and DB. Currently I have a vCenter 5.0 with Sql Express. I want to install new 5.5 vCenter as there is a problem with the Windows operating system. Can anyone provide steps on the migration of the current 5.0 vCenter vCenter license to new vCenter 5.5. And not taking a full backup of the current comics and migration to the new full DB will give me same old vCenter inventory?

    Kind regards

    Vikram kumar

    You must first migrate the database to db express to Full SQL 2008 DB. The steps are lower in the article.

    VMware KB: Migrating the database from the SQL Express vCenter server to full SQL Server

    -Deploy the new operating system and give the same IP address and host name you use for the old operating system.

    -Take the backup of the more secure base for located.

    -Take SSL certificate to the top of the old C:\ProgramData\VMware\VirtualCenter Server\SSL Server

    -Create the system DSN proper connections on the new host to vCenter server. For more information, see displaying and editing of the database server to vCenter Server installation fails with ODBC and DSN errors (1003928).

    -If the new VirtualCenter server using the same hostname and IP address, SSL certificates can be copied to the new server to eliminate the need to reconnect the ESX and ESXi hosts.

    -To copy the VirtualCenter Server SSL certificates:

    1. Create this folder structure on the new server:
    2. C:\ProgramData\VMware\VirtualCenter Server\SSL

    -To copy the VirtualCenter Server SSL certificates:

    -Copy these files from the server, VirtualCenter of origin to the new server, while preserving the folder structure:

    • VirtualCenter Server\SSL\rui.key C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware
    • VirtualCenter Server\SSL\rui.pfx C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware
    • VirtualCenter Server\SSL\rui.crt C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware

    -Launch Virtual center 5.5 installation see the installation guide for 5.5

    -When you are prompted, select use existing databaseand provide the correct credentials for the database.

    -When you are prompted, select this option to not reset the database to keep all your inventory data.

    -Restart the computer after the installation is complete.

  • VCenter license transfer between companies

    Hey, it's a strange question.

    My company acquired a business with a license and vcenter server. The computer specialist of the company reaching just to the left, without to release much information. Other contacts in the company have useless insofar as technical information. I wonder if anyone has ever transferred a vcenter license between companies only the information they needed to make a difference. They couldn't find the invoice for the order of origin either.

    The material is a stupid idea, otherwise I would wear just any server in the course.

    Any thoughts?
