Issue license - 4 physical processors

I don't know if this is the place, but I had a question about licensing for vSphere Essentials.

I have a single server, DL580 (with four physical processors) and would get ESXi 6.0 and the VCSA (all) - all about ESXi free edition is fine, except no VCSA (makes me want to look for a solution elsewhere - I do not have any needs HA).

However, the Kit of Essentials lists the following:

License law - "3 servers with up to 2 processors each.

Am I reading this right? I can really use only up to two processors on a single host licenses? The free edition seems to allow me to use all 4!

Thanks in advance!

Follow-up (surprised some of the prosaic "answers" by the way).

It is possible with the Essentials Kit. To license VMware:

"I wish to inform you that vSphere Essentials Kit to be used on several 3 hosts with - 6 CPU altogether." English vcenter server essentials can manage 3 guests = 6 processors / CPU.

If you have 1 host (s) of 2 processors and another host of 4 processors, you could still license and manage multiple hosts. »

The server vCenter license is the limiting factor.

  • Licenses for single processor in a server dual socket

    Hi, I keep getting conflicting information regarding the authorization of a CPU socket server two filled with a single processor. The question is what I have to concede to the number of available sockets on a given server even if not all are met? For example, if I have a server for 2 sockets with a single physical processor installed, can I get a license ESX Server for a processor or two outlets available?

    I thought that strategy was changed in 2008, according to the statement of VMware (link below), but one of my colleagues contacted VMware support this last July asking this question and I was told that each outlet available should be allowed regardless of if they are populated with a processor.

  • License for 2 processors

    Hello

    I have an ESXI 4.0 (I think my question is the same for esxi 3.5) on a server with 2 processors so 2 x 4 hearts.

    My question is simple:

    (1) how to activate all the hearts (so 8 covers) on my windows server?

    (2) how to activate 1CPU so 4 cores on a windows server and the second processor on another?

    PS: my license: product: ESXi 4 server only allowed for 2 physical processors

    Thx a lot

    Hello

    You can have virtual machines with 8 vCPUs with vSphere Enterprise Plus allowed. If you do not have it, you can use that 4 vCPUs.

    If you configure 2 virtual machines with 4 vCPUs, is mos likely probable that each virtual machine will use half of your physical CPU. The ESX consumes 1 of them, but not all the time, and control virtual machines so that they can be distributed in an equitable manner between the virtual machines. You can have more vCPUs than physical CPU without problem.

    I hope this helps.

  • 2 physical processors with free ESXi 5.1?

    Hello world

    I apologize if this has been cleared up before, but I found several contradictory answers.

    I have a Poweredge 1950 III server that was given to me by a friend after having been abandoned. I have it at home, want to run ESXi free 5.1 there, but am curious to know if I'll be able to use two physical processors that are in the machine.

  • Issue license ROBO

    Hello

    Hoping someone can help me solve a license problem I have...

    We have several hosts of ESXi 5.1 existing in the branches (1 per branch), they are currently licensed using the free version of ESXi. I would now like to add these servers to a new Server Standard central vCenter 5.5 so they can be managed through that. For this we bought licenses of VM ROBO 125 (Standard) licence.

    My plan was just to add a hosts to vCenter both and change them to ROBO licenses however the first snag I hit was that you can't add a free licensed with ESXi host to vCenter, just enough so I thought I'd just change it back to the eval method to add it and then modify and utilize licensed ROBO. However, it seems that the eval mode has been fully utilized until the free license has been added so I can't change it back to the eval mode.

    I then noticed that we had a business license of 5.5 spare CPU 2 on the vCenter, so I added the host (change so that it uses this license during the import process). It worked and the host is now in vCenter using the company key 5.5 (although it shows as using a key Enterprise 5.1 of the same number), he didn't complain that the license key was invalid due to me using a key of 5.5 to a host 5.1 of the license.

    However when I went to change to use the ROBO button, I get a an error 'A specified setting is not correct: licenseKey " and it won't let me change the license ROBO. It is not clear to me why I am getting this error, but is there a specific problem with a host from a host permits licensed ROBO (I have not found anything about it)? I found this article VMware KB: licensing to a host ESXi fails with the error: a specified parameter is not correct: licenseKey which indicates that there might be a license version number issue however I would have thought I would have got this error when I tried to apply the license 5.5 host to the host in the first place but that has worked well. The ROBO in vCenter license just said v5 rather than v5.5 is therefore a specific point of ROBO license version and I need to downgrade to get a license for 5.1 or is going on here about something else?

    Thank you

    Nick

    I could be wrong, but this could be linked to the ESXi/vCenter Server version you are using. If I understand correctly the ROBO new licenses properly, by VM license requires ESXi and vCenter 5.5 Update 2 or later (see for example compare VMware vSphere Editions). In previous versions ROBO has been licensed by processor.

  • BPEL Process Manager developer - issue license

    My company is licensed for BPEL PM and there on several servers. I'm a developer to create programs for my business I'm official... not a contractor. All programs are deployed to our development servers.

    I want to install BPEL PM on my laptop. This would allow me to put offline and also to work around any problems that arise on the development such as table querying server or queue crashes and necessary reboots, etc.

    The installation of BPEL PM is allowed free of charge on a pc developer for this situation?

    Technically no, but you can be covered by the OTN license. When you download the software from OTN you sign a contract. IF you feel that you are covered in the present virtue then go nuts.

    How customers is generally have licenses processors, for the production and the user Named for development license test, etc. You need a minimum to 10 named users per CPU of your dev to test environments. If your company has purchased more then you could use some of these licenses, but remember you will have 10 not one as it is a new machine.

  • Issue update Compaq 6510 processor b

    Hello

    I'm about to upgrade the laptop processor for my Compaq 6510 b-computer that currently has the Intel Celeron 540 (1.86 GHz) processor. I studied the latest international document quickspecs (p. 4), which says that the laptop must be compatible with the Intel Core 2 Duo T7700, which I would be interested in upgrading to.

    However, I noticed that there are 4 different "versions" of this processor on the market of the product descripition Intel. These "versions" are called: SLA43, SLAF7, SLA3M and SLADL. Now I'm about to buy the tray (no not in box) SLAF7-model, but would like confirmation that this model works with the Compaq 6510 b-computer laptop?

    I did some additional research on the 4 models and thought I'd do a short summary on them even, because someone might find it useful. From my understanding and looking at the "'Ordering / sSpecs / Steppings"-page on the left side of theIntel product description page, both latter models (SLA3M, SLADL) are models of Ball Grid Array (BGA), which means they are soldered on the motherboard and so I can't use them for an upgrade. " However, the SLA43 and SLAF7 models are the two tables in grid Pin (PGA) and so I should be able to upgrade to one of these. The only difference between the SLA43 a SLAF7 of models is that they have different steps: "E1" and "G0". However, it seems that in practice this difference in step by step is an important place. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    The best way to get more information is by checking the specs on the numbers for INTEL processors optionally simplify research candidate upgrade.

    Hello guys, I have ´ve tried to add CAS server in a CAM, but I got an error that says:

    Hi muozmellado,

    To add the CASE to the CAM you have the license CASE. for the license in CASE you will need to request with product authorization key (PAK) that is comes with AC. During this process, you will need to provide both mac address (primary and secondary) of CAM. Once you get the license CASE installation this license in cam and try adding CASES in the CAM.
