Evaluation for ESXi 4.1 license?

I have currently 3 guests I'm apparently running ESXi 4.1 free edition on. I am to evaluate a backup program called Trilead VM Explorer that requires guests have paid licenses for these features. I wanted to see if it was worthwhile to buy the Essentials kit (which probably would include an appropriate license) and VM Explorer, so I registered assess vCenter 5 in the hope that it would give me a temporary license for the hosts. That doesn't seem to be the case, unless I'm missing something.

Is there a way to do this?

For the assessment of vSphere 60 period begins just after installation without needing a license key (this is why you do not get one). For systems installed longer than 60 days, you need a proper license key. Contact a partner of VMware or VMware sales representative to see if they can provide you with a trial key.

    I could find the free license only for Esxi 6.0 standard image customized Cisco.

    Thank you.

    Welcome to the community,

    Cisco and other hardware providers offer ESXi images customized to support their equipment. However, the customization is made by adding/replacement drivers and tools. The base is still the same original VMware image. There is no specific license provider.

  • Necessary for ESXi 5.0 RAID?

    Hi all

    I am quite new to this VMware and it's our first test of society on the implementation of the VM solution to our test environment.

    So please be generous if my question is redundant or I'm a bad advice.

    Our server is HP Proliant DL380 G5 server, and we bought the license VMware Essential Kit.  (installing ESXi 5.0 planning)

    As most of you already know, HP servers have this thing SmartStart which helps the user RAID disks before installing so that cases of dysfunction of a disk, the mirror will do its job until the fix.

    But when I was reading the other articles, it is said that esxi will not recognize software RAID?

    Also, no ESXi have some type of built in resources distribution system that allows virtual machines to function even if one or two hosts readers a malfunction?

    Corrections, suggestions and questions are welcome.

    Moreover, since it is the test environment, HP box is the only host (about 3.8 TB) and we intend to run about 4 ~ 5 VMs.

    Thank you

    Welcome to the community,

    most of the DL380 G5 models come with a built in P400 SmartArray RAID controller, which is a hardware RAID controller supported. The RAID functionality is completely transparent for ESXi in this case (for example, rebuilding after a fialure). So nothing to worry about this controller

    Regarding the size of disk/RAID you mentioned, you may need to divide the RAID in several logical volumes using the ACU (Array Configuration Utility) as a result of a problem with the currently used driver (see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2006942). I would recommend that you create a logical volume of 10 GB for ESXi and divide the disc space remaining in two logical volumes for use VMFS data warehouses.

    BTW. the controller has BBWC (battery backed write cache)? This is very important and makes a HUGE difference in the performance of the disk.

  • Service profile of the CISCO UCS for ESXi

    Do you need multiple boot LUN on the storage array for each host that you want to apply the service profile to? I'm just confused, let's say I have 12 blades that I want to designate as boot SAN for ESXi, y aura-t 12 profiles of separate service for each of them, and will need me 12 different LUNS on our storage? I am new to this and I just want to make it as clean as possible! Any help is appreciated.

    Hi Justin,

    You can have the same LUN ID for multiple service profiles, as well as the same target ID. However, your initiators will be different and you will need to configure the zoning on your switch upstream if you use the end host mode.

    Here is a good guide, review the basics and how to put in place.
