ESX license policy: free evaluation version, multi core,.

What happens when vsphere standard license is applied on a 2 p (8 cores per processor) AMD server host? This means that any guest THAT VM can be configured up to 6 VCPUs only?

or is it causes any violation of license?

Finally is a real free version of ESX, ESXi, which could be used up to 6-cores? Similar to the free 1 year of Citrix XenServer license that can be requested again when it expires

"VMware ESX is free for up to 6 cores per processor only.

"Version of Vsphere Advanced is required for 12 processor cores"

Thanks in advance.

Yes

In a way VMware licenses has nothing to do with cores/processors available on the host hardware, but only the ability to configure to prompt vCPU?

No, it's both.  Company like can see beyond the 6 cores per physical processor and allow up to 8vCPU per guest.  See the link I posted above

  • Photoshop license after the evaluation version

    Hello

    I have the trial version of Photoshop and now I bought the € 11.89 lightroom and photoshop, but I can't licensise photoshop. With lightroom, it was so easy, I just had open the app and had to click on "licensing" (in German). But how to do this with photoshop? I can open it, but there is no window where I can click on "licensing".

    Yesterday I received an email that my trial version of photoshop runs and I can buy it for € 23,79, but I thought that I had bought Photoshop and lightroom for € 11.89 per month?

  • A free trial version to paid app adding existing

    I try to add a free evaluation version limited in time to my app on AppWorld - I think that I spent all day reading all the posts on try & buy, but I still don't quite get it... :-(

    I have a signed .bar file which is greater than the final version, and which stop working a week after installation and of course provides a link to the appropriate page of AppWorld to purchase the full version. But I'm not sure where to submit them in the supplier portal: I don't want to not appear as a separate application (as with many applications and a version "lite"), but two buttons "try" and "Purchase" on the same page of product.

    I tried to change the Type of license of my trusted application of 'paid' to 'Buy and try' and then you click 'Next', in the hope that he would ask then to the trial version .bar file - but need me only by graphics and description forms of information...

    I also watched "Add release", but this seems to be only for updates.

    I know that some of you have figured this out (Innovatology... great app btw!), so I hope someone can help me out with that!

    Thank you very much

    My app: Get set - get up!   Get ready for the revolution snooze.

    I don't know how it works for existing applications - files & folders was try & buy v1.00.

    Normally, a version of an application try & buy is really two versions with slightly different version numbers, e.g. 4.1.1 (try) and 4.1.2 (buy). When you add a release for a try & buy app there is a checkbox to indicate whether it is a trial version or not.

  • Issue of license multi-core

    Hi all

    Everything that Google talk to me about my problem, to include multicore currently VMware licensing policy, has been a year or so old so I thought I would ask here.

    The last part to my new server from the lab to the home coming today, I'm refreshing my old box mono-socket dual-core opteron I have used for the past two years; the new system is built around a motherboard very mono-socket G34 with processor 8-core Opteron Magny-Cours.  What I was googling earlier, it seems that VMware has not fixed the '6 cores per socket"licensing issue.  This license number is very strange since CPUs 8-core brand new ones can be had for less than $250 and 12 processors can be had for a little over $500, so they are not exactly going to be unique in large data centers.

    I really want to stay with ESXi. That said, can someone tell me if I have to move to Hyper-V, I already have rights, just to be able to use all my new bright carrots?  A couple of thousand dollars just to support a processor whose capabilities are more or less comparable to a quad-core xeon w / hypethreading, lighted, who would work under the free license as I read it, is not in the budget.

    Thanks for insight to date on that.

    Kind regards

    I have seen posts that suggest that your hearts would work with the free hypervisor.

  • Can I add the VSphere Essentials license key to the evaluation version of Vsphere?

    Hi all

    We bought Vsphere essentials and waiting on licenses to get out.  New equipment has arrived and I'm eager to get started virtualize the current environment.

    I can download the demo version of vsphere, start configuring etc THEN add the essentials license key when this happens?

    The toggle features license key in ESX or is there different versions?

    Thanks in advance

    Welcome to the Forums - Yes, you can start with the ESX evaluation mode which is equivalent to Enterprise Plus - so when you apply the essentials license, you will lose the features that you are not allowed to

  • Multi-Core app on ESX

    I am Software Engineer Senior and did not address many with VMWare ESX server. We have a custom application that can create threads and works on several processors (basically an EAI/ESB custom). It can be between 10-1000 of them running at any given time. Some of these threads run fast a few long (5 seconds to 15 minutes). Our test environment is not VM and is a quad core 4 GB RAM of the machine. When we put into production (farm of ESX servers), our admins told us that 1 CPU would be sufficient and that VMWare ESX will use multiple cores in the back-end and spread all these threads, even if the guest operating system only has 1 CPU. When at full load, the performance is horrible and basically just ends grind to stop at certain times (the physical machine image can handle this load with no problems and when I ran across the same load on this machine that it processed through it all in 45 minutes approximately). I asked at least 2 hearts on our guest as I suspect change between 1000 threads of context is the source of the problems, but the infrastructure group insists that ESX can automatically handle stretching the wires behind the scenes and that even though we have only 1 core on the comments that she really access all carrots on the host machine and that it is a code issue. (Our ESX farm is 8 xeon quad/quad core with hyperthreading and 32GB RAM data on a San)

    So my question is, is this true? I read all white papers and feature sheets, etc. and can not find a clear answer. What I undestand the scheduling of whitepapers, etc. that I've read this is not the case, but I wanted to throw the question to the community to make sure that I was missing something.

    None... now if she had more than a single vCPU, these processes would be divided another Jepp of the host.

  • 4 of ESX license request

    Hello

    Recently, I have been trialing 4 ESX and Virtual Center and the trial period expired before I had finished stable. I don't have the characteristics of vCenter to complete the test so I tried to enter a license key for the free version of ESXi on hosts. It worked and I found myself with ESX 4 (service console) running on a free ESXi license key, only the ESXi features were available. It was only a test, but just curious to know if this is supported, running ESX 4 with free ESXi 4 license key.

    It is not supported.  This license for ESXi is only meant to be used for ESXi and ESX.  The fact that it works is not all that surprising, but the EULA should restrict yourself to just ESXi.

    Look in the vSphere Essentials bundles - they are very affordable if you are a beginner with vSphere.

  • Tecra A9: Cannot enable or disable Multi Core processing in the BIOS

    I have a Tecra A9 and want to swicht out of the Multi Core Processing in the Bios, but it is impossible.

    To the old Bios version (1.50), it has been possible.

    Now I use the most recent (2.10) and I can't move the cursor to this selection.

    The special key strokes?

    If this isn't the case - where can I download the previous version of the bios where this selection is possible?

    Thank you

    Ulli

    Hello

    > Otherwise - where can I download the previous version of the bios where this selection is possible?
    This is not possible because it is always the newest available BIOS can be downloaded.

    With regard to the option in the BIOS.
    Do you mean you are not able to choose this option or you can't change the value?

    Toshiba BIOS:
    Usually the buttons PgUp / PdDn would change the BIOS page. The arrow buttons to select items. SPACE or BkSp can be used to change the values.

    But note; You can only change the value if it s interchangeable. But many options appear in the BIOS but is not editable.

  • LabVIEW 8.6.1 AMD Multi Core Crash with call loops

    Hi all

    I tried, but I couldn't find all the messages with my exact situation.  Here it goes:

    I have a multi-core AMD Phenom 64 processor and I'm running Windows 7 64 and I am running an application in LabVIEW 8.6.1 in compatibility mode.  (I know, not a good idea)  I have a pretty complex application with several timed loops and the different ways to talk to FieldPoint (FieldPoint 6.0.6 and experimentation with Modbus talk to cFP-180 x).  You may be wondering why I'm using call loops.  It is an application of RT which can also run on Windows using structures conditional disable, etc.

    I had met sporadic crashing earlier in my files executable for more than a year and used a lvalarms.dll in only patched version my executables.  It was on a totally different processor and we were running Vista at that time.  Now, I notice a very similar behavior on 8.6.1, except now the development environment all crashes or breaks down my executable compiled as well.

    I found this KB, but he was referring to problems observed on LabVIEW 8.5, and the utility of the OS is only for Windows XP.  As recommended in the KB, I used BCDEdit to set the flag onecpu and now everything seems to work normally.  My PC is now significantly slower, however, and I wonder if there is another workaround solution that I might be able to try.

    If you have read so far and who have followed my description you already have my gratitude.  If anyone else has experienced this?  Someone at - it ideas?

    Thank you very much

    Jim

    Alright.  In case someone else runs into this apparently dark scenario, here's workaround solutions I've found:

    1. see if the problem goes away by setting the processor affinity using the Task Manager. Open the Task Manager, look under the "Processes" tab and right-click on the process. (for example LabVIEW.exe or your executable)  Under the context menu which select "set affinity...". "and select only the CPU 0.  In my case, I have a quad-core processor, so I up to four logical processors that are displayed in the dialog box that results.

    Run your application code or the executable file for a while, and if everything seems to be stable, it would seem that you have isolated the problem successfully.

    2. one of the solutions is to disable additional logical processors for the entire operating system, although there may be negative implications on performance.  In this case, try the steps in the lower part of this KB.  I have Windows 7, so I used the utility of command-line bcdedit with no problems.

    3. Finally, a really interesting option that is well worked for me should automatically set the affinity of the processor for each individual process.  There is at least a utility available to achieve this.  I've now changed my LabVIEW 8.6 shortcut to call RunFirst, which sets the processor affinity for LabVIEW to automatically use the first logical processor.  This way I can still use my processor image for all it's worth except in applications that have problems with it.

    I hope this helps someone else out there one day.

  • Problems of causing classic vista of gel-crash games or force him to leave Windows (vista 64, multi-core)

    Hi Mhusoy,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    You have installed the latest drivers for the graphics card?

    Is - what your computer crashes alone while you play games or of otherwise?

    You can if check if the games you try playing are compatible with Windows Vista or not. Follow the link and check the details.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-Vista/default.aspx

    You try to install the games you play in Windows XP mode and check if you get the same question.

    Run the program compatibility Wizard

    1. Open the program compatibility Wizard by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, clicking programs, and then clicking use an older with this version of Windows program.
    2. Follow the instructions in the wizard.

    If you are unable to install a program, insert the installation for the program and, using the wizard disk, navigate to the program setup file, usually called Setup.exe, Install.exe, or something similar. The wizard is not designed to work on programs that have an .msi file name extension.

  • Malware 'non-genuine windows' shows and other software (Acronis) not said that this is the evaluation version when it is the paid-up version.

    I've been running windows 7 64 bit with SP1 and all the updates that are known for 10 months without any problem.  Now, a 'non-genuine windows' malware appear and other software (Acronis) not said this is the evaluation version when it's the fully paid for version.  What should I do to solve this problem.  Rick Rickard

    You must read the user final license agreement and you will find that the OEM licenses have restrictions. You need to understand.

    If you want to move windows from one computer to another, you need a full commercial license.
    This same problem is again this morning on another computer where he runs a real operating system from microsoft, Windows 7 32 bit SP!, more than 4 months.  Today he says that my win 7 op sys is not authentic.  This computer has been customized built so I was the first to install a sys op on it.

  • Free trial version of Dreamweaver CM³, HELP!

    Can someone please help me find some of the old features of Dreamweaver? I use the free trial version of Dreamweaver CC and I'm going through tutorials on lynda.com and all the features that they have, that I can't find?

    1. I NEED RETURN DESIGN VIEW! It is no less: view > Design view. The only things which are: Code, Split, alive and split Code? How can I get?

    2. on the lynda.com videos, each video has 3 buttons at the bottom of the document window that show the view either phone, Tablet and PC (in the shape of each). My trial version does not work? It has a menu that allows me to see different massively phones and tablets, but I want that it simplified so I can just press a button to see which one I want. How can I get that?

    3. I want CSS Styles menu. I love having the ability to do beside the window of the designer, but sometimes it is more difficult to make simple changes. I would still be able to click on the css style I want to modify, and a window pops up to do. How is that possible?

    4. in the lynda.com videos, they also have a file CALCULATED under section of selectors of the designer window css that allows to see all the styles that have been added to your site. They said that Dreamweaver CC adds this file automatically, but my trial version does not. How can I get this file to automatically display?

    5. basically, I don't know if the version I downloaded is the same one they use on the site of Lynda but I downloaded Dreamweaver CC 2015 and these are the videos that I clicked on to lynda.com. There are 2 different version of Dreamweaver CC 2015?

    6. the free trial version has all the options the paid for version don't? If this is not the case, how am I supposed to make a decision on whether to buy it if I can't get the features I need?

    Thanks for everyone help :-)

    1. as long as you are not in a fluid grid layout, click the arrow to the right of the direct button upward in the toolbar to the design. If you are in a FGL, you need to change your fluid grid css file in order to recover the design mode. Fluid grids are now considered legacy and, finally, don't be taken in charge by the program. To get the rear Design mode in a FGL:

    Close all other files, open the Legacy fluid grid css and add the X shown below:

    /*

    Properties Grid Dreamweaver fluid

    ----------------------------------

    DW-num-CLO-mobile: X 4;

    DW-num-CLO-Tablet: 8;

    DW-num-OCOL-Office: 12;

    DW-gutter-percentage: 25;

    =====================================

    Then save and close the file.

    DW restart and you should have Design view from there out on all the files using the .css file of that LFGL.

    2. the 3 buttons have been replaced by a list of typical sizes. Click the resolution numbers in this corner of the list. You can also grab the handle on the right side of the preview window and rub it in to set a size you want

    3. the old CSS panel disappeared. The designer of the CSS is the replacement and can be resized to match to almost the size of the old Board, but this former Panel feature disappeared. You can get the dialogue to CSS rules that pop for all integrated (in the)) or the external css selector by selecting the item and then clicking the CSS button in the property inspector, and then press to change the rule.

    4 AFAIK, this disappeared, however if preview you in search in Firefox, right click on an item and choose the item to be inspected, the computed css will show here.

    5. the version you have is probably 3 or if versions more recent than the tutorial. You can't have older versions of CC applications unless you are a Subscriber CC. If you subscribe, you can have DWCS6, CC, CC2014, and CC2015 all installed at the same time on the same machine under a single license.

    6. the trial version is the full program, you are just using a much newer than the tutorial and a lot has changed
