Issue licenses to be awarded assessment to vSphere 4 Essentials Plus

Host: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Mode of assessment
In vSphere 4 Essentials Plus (<>LICENSE KEY)

Features in use:
* vMotion

I bought essentials more licenses include vMotion.  Why vSphere asks me to turn it off during the award of licenses to each host?

I have 2 guests, and he complains about two of them.  My "assessment" "expires" in 7 days. Help!

What version do you use? vMotion has been added to Essentials Plus 4.1 and is not available in 4.0. Using vMotion you must have vCenter Server and hosts on the 4.1 version.

  • Cannot assign VMWare Essentials-PLUS license, says "vSphere FT" in use.

    I am desperately trying to activate VMWare Essentials plus, but when I try to asssign the key to these two hosts ESXi 5.0.0 get:

    License may not be assigned, features in use: vSphere FT

    The other key "In VSphere VMWare Server" just assigned very well.

    That amounts to two questions:

    How remove vSphete FT, even when disabling HA completely it always says "are in use."

    I was informed by a representative of VMWare "Fault Tolerance" is included in Essentials, but the reality seems to be different. So either I have a technical problem or we have been deceived.

    Any information to clarify what is happening is appreciated.

    Check the configuration of your network on the host, especially the VMKernel ports and make sure that you have not accidentally activate the checkbox "logging Fault Tolerance.

  • Differences - license in VC 2.5 and vsphere

    Hi friends,

    Please help to understand the differences between licensing in VC 2.5 and vSphere

    -VC 2.5 needs a license server, where as there are keys on vSphere licenses in vSphere

    Are all the other differences there? Help, please

    With the change of license keys to license server, you are now able to easily run different editions of ESX (i) in your data center. Licenses can be assigned to each host separately.

    It is also no longer necessary for licenses based on the temporary host if your server licenses (Virtual Center) has declined and was not available for 14 days (period of grace).

  • VSphere Essentials Plus Kit vs Standard

    All the

    I need help to make a decision here.  The environment is both physical server (2 CPU each) and they run out of a small local SAN.  I was going to get Essentials more but the problem is that it is around $ 5500 per server physical and that is almost as expensive as the server.  I'm looking for alternatives and I fell on VSphere Standard edition.  Although Essentials Plus has all the Bell and whistle I am looking for, but we can live with HA and vMotion.  The truth is that I can live with 15 minutes of downtime, I just need to know if I should get VSphere Standard edition or even Essentials that I have the opportunity to make a VM if I experience hardware failure?  Thank you in advance.

    Welcome to the community,

    vSphere Essentials Plus Kit comes with a license for an instance of vCenter Server Essentials and 6 CPU license for up to 3 guests with up to 2 processors each. No need to buy a Kit by server.

  • The upgrade of free vSphere vSphere Essentials Plus

    Can someone point me in the direction of the vSphere upgrade free to vSphere Essentials Plus? I'm relatively new to vSphere in the installation process.

    Yes, same procedure, but note that you will have a license key for version 4.x. If you have the license key for version 5.x and the host is version 4.x, you must upgrade your host to version 5.x or downgrade your license for version 4.x.

  • VMware vSphere Essentials Plus Kit Upgrade

    Hello

    We are currently running VMware vCenter Server 5.1.0 and VMware ESXi VMware vSphere Essentials Plus Kit license 5.1 with 5.1.0. I think the move to VMware ESXi and VMware vCenter Server 6.0 6.0


    I already had a host with ESXi 6.0 and I tried to use my existing on this host 6.0 Essentials Plus Kit License, but it does not work. I have to upgrade my license key? What are my options?

  • What are the steps to upgrade to vCenter/vSphere Essentials Plus 5.0 to vCenter/vSphere 5.5 Standard?

    We currently have VMWare Essentials Plus on 3 hosts, with 2 processors each. We wanted to add 2 more ESX host, so we improved our standard for vCenter/vSphere license to version 5.5. We try to find the best possible route to install 5.5 on the hosts and upgrade the server vCenter Server with our new version of the granting of licenses and software. The best initial step would be to apply the new license in the current framework 5.0 hosts and vCenter server and then upgrade the software 1 by 1? Or apply the new license to our current Server vCenter, pgrade to 5.5 server and then upgrade each host? Our Dell Rep gave me this guide (updated for VMware vSphere, Cloud Computing for companies of all sizes |) United States) and mentioned if we need assistance, contact VMWare.

    Any guidance would be appreciated.

    5.0 and 5.5 must use the same keys. Then start by adding the new license key to your vCenter server then you are able to manage more than 3 guests.

    Next step would be to update the server vCenter to 5.5 so it can handle actually 5.5 hosts.

    Subsequently you would update the hosts.

    Host licenses can also be replaced at any time during this process, because they are also specific 5.x version.

    Theoretical you could even stay on 5.0 and simply replace licenses if they are not a sort of special license keys.

  • vSphere Essentials Plus 5

    Afternoon people

    I have a client that I visited the other day and they decided to implement VMWARE ESX 4.1 in their environment, they use the following

    3 x ESX host servers

    1 x vCentre

    DRS

    2 x iSCSI without

    18 x Virtual Machines

    They have installed this as a POC on trial, somehow, they decided to P2V all their live servers in the closed ESX and are now their operational infrastructure. The trial license will expire in 2 weeks and I suggested that they buy vSphere Essentials 5, more than it supports only up to 3 guests complete with DRS which is what they use. My question is the license that is provided by VMWARE buying easily transposable to the current configuration without the need to upgrade all systems? The important thing is now that they can continue their VMs operating system.

    Thank you very much

    Yes - you will just need to apply the license on the vCenter server and they will be approved for essentials Plus-noreinstall rwequired -.

  • 'VMware vSphere 4 Essentials Bundle for 3 guests' trial

    Hello

    I have just buyed VMware vSphere 4 Essentials Bundle for 3 guests.

    I can't find a trial (maybe I'm blind?) for this product? Delivery of license takes more then 3 days (electronic delivery...?), so I wanted to download a trial version, get all this work so that I can just paste the file or license key.

    is this possible?

    Just download the free installer, use the key to the trial (register for the correct number of pin/Socket) and then simply paste in the key bought once it arrives.

  • Question about VCB and VMWare vSphere 4 Essentials

    Hello

    We have 2 virtual servers: one with ESXi35 (that has VMWare infrastructure Client 2.5) and the other with ESXi4 (which a vSphere Client 4). There is an offer to purchase of VMWare vSphere 4 Essentials to half the regular price and I wanted to know if this product allows me to backup (and possibly restore) virtual machines using VCB scripts.

    Thank you very much

    Concerning

    Carlos Negroni

    From this link, http://store.vmware.com/store/vmware/en_US/DisplayProductDetailsPage/productID.126843700 , it includes VCB so the answer to your question is Yes.  I remember got an e-mail that VCB is now end of life so that it is no longer that probably not available in the next version of ESX.

  • VMWare ESXi 4 or VMware vSphere 4 Essentials Bundle

    Hi all

    We are size medium no criticism of business when it come to the

    servers and COMPUTER service. We currently hold 10 physical servers in the future

    will be placed on the virtual environment. We already have VMware ESXi 4 running that

    who currently hold 3 VMs.

    We bought the very powerful server that can accommodate more than

    15 virtual machines.

    Specification of the server:

    2 physical processors with 6 hearts

    16 GB memory

    2 TB internal hard drive

    4 * a gigabit network card

    I'm not sure I should install VMware ESXi or pay a

    version of VMware vSphere. The new server will be critical such as servers

    Exchange, BES, Finance server. We do not want to spend more than £1000

    License of VMware. VMware vSphere 4 Essentials Bundle responds to our

    requirements and the budget. I was watching VCB guide and it is perhaps useful

    but it took a lot of configuration, SAN/NAS and extra money (agents of)

    third party software to backup).

    We have SIN, and it is connected to the network switch. Yes, I did

    trying to backup to NAS (70 GB) and it took about 6 hours using FOSS Veem.

    Should I go for free version or VMware vSphere 4 Essentials

    Bundle?

    Thank you

    > What benefits will I have more other free version VCB then?

    Well well with VCB, you can make full backups of you vms, but you can also use with free ESXi as GHettoVCB free tools.
