• Issue of license/software download

  After that I installed the ESX, license information showed they were under summary/license as "vsphere 4 Enterprise."

  So for the server vcenter (4.0), I downloaded the software from the company.  But I noticed under Vcenter/Home/Licensing, vcenter Server Standard 4 appears even if I downloaded the zip file of Enterprise.  Is that going to be a potential problem?  Very strange.  Thanks for the help!

  Standard is higher you can go for vCenter licenses.  You're good.

  I just buy a ROBO (25 VM) license key and I wanted to add to my existing vCenter server.

  But whenever I added to vCenter I get this error

  

  Does anyone has worked with before ROBO licenses and could you tell me what is the problem? or contact VMware Support?

  Which vCenter version you're running and which version license did you buy?

  If you're running 5.5 and vSphere bought 6 licenses, you will need to downgrade the license to 5.5.

• Issue of license upgrade: Windows XP Home - > Win7 Pro?

  Microsoft licenses allow an install WinXP Home to upgrade to Win7 Pro through the 'Upgrade' of Win7 Pro edition?

  Thank you

  Microsoft licenses allow an install WinXP Home to upgrade to Win7 Pro through the 'Upgrade' of Win7 Pro edition?

  Thank you

  Yes, Windows XP Home Edition can be an eligible license, but you will need to do a custom installation, there is no direct upgrade path from it.

  The upgrade to Windows XP?

  
  

  Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.

  
  

  Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).

  
  

  
  

  
  

  More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

  1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

  2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

  3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

  4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

  5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

  If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.

• Issue of license associated with vSphere upgrade from 5.5 to 6

  I want to improve my environment to vSphere 5.5 to 6.

  I have several ESXi servers and 1 vCenter server. Some servers ESXi serving direct environment and a test environment.

  I want to upgrade, step by step so, install the new server vSephere and upgrade test environment 6.0 ESXi servers. and then run a few days test environment.

  Upgrade needs, I need to convert the license keys to 6.0.

  Can I run then simultaneously the two environemts two or three days? (living environment using license keys 5.5 and 6.0 keys environment converted from 5.5 test keys)?

  Some key ESXi are used in several ESXi is used according to CPU sockets associated with these keys.

  Believe me, it does not, it may seem, but you pile up errors for later.   It would be a better option to generate a vCenter 6 in eval mode and go that route.

• Question about license vcenter 5.5

  Hello people,

  Small doubt just wanted to know that I'm gng to upgrade the vcenter of 5.0 to 5.5 and I downloaded the trial version of vcenter 5.5 using tests of environment but now 60 days has been more so if I install on I think that production which will continue to work as we have a 5.0 license in place.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Hello, amitb79.

  VMware does not divide the licenses of minor versions of products (this is certainly true for vSphere and views), it is not Microsoft (2012 and 2012 R2 for example). Your license will be working fine for 5.5 too.

  Hmm, but Microsoft told us that Win 2012 and 2012R2 are different products, but who cares.

• Licensing vCenter confusion

  I'm pretty new to VMWare and be a sysadmin in general, so I'm confuse that I inherited through the environment, and try to understand things. We have two sites with VM hosts; our HQ office which has 3 guests and a recovery with a single host site. Until a few months ago the host DR no was not managed by a vCenter server. I joined the single host on the DR site to an empty data center object unit of vCenter server running on hosts in HQ. I don't remember if she asked for a license of sort or not when I did.

  Now, I try to get RS to work between the sites, so I've deployed a unit of vCenter server to host the site of DR and licensed. Now, I'm trying to attach an empty object of the DR DR vCenter Server host data center (and thus remove the server vCenter in HQ).

  When I do this, the wizard asks me to assign a license key to this host. Here is where I get lost. He suggests that I attribute a license key that I already use for this host, but when I try to use it I tells me that the license belongs to other inventory and I'm going to be in non-compliance, unless I delete the inventory. I don't know what all this means, so I dug through my licenses available on the VMWare website, until I found the Red-obscured license in there and I have this. The license that is obscured in red is one that is in use on the site of HQ. So if I understand correctly, then I should put that is obscured in green on the DR site?

  Hello

  Yes, you are right.  10 - CPU package appears as the unique license key and can therefore be installed in a vCenter.  Other license keys 5 processors will have to be added to your vCenter DR.

  All the best,

  Mike

• Licensing vCenter Server

  Dear team,

  Please let me know is vcenter 4 standard license will work with vcenter server5.1 or to buy / upgrade of the existing license. Please help me with the complete steps.

  concerning

  Mr. Vmware

  From a technical point of view, you will have two license keys after the license upgraded in my VMware, one for version 4.x (the existing one) and one for version 5.x (newly assigned license). However, with the upgrade of the license key in the portal, you agree to stop using the old license.

• Issue of license on the version of the police - Antique Olive

  Hello

  One of our business partners use a black 'Antique Olive' font in his file.  He told me that the police is Adobe.  I can only find 'Antique Olive Std Black' in the fonts Adobe store.  I bought and installed on our machine.  However, when I open the file, "the police is missing' WARNING still appears.

  According to compare policies, it seems the 2 fonts is the same, but different version.  "Ancient Olive Black" seems to be the old font version.  As I purchase the license 'Antique Olive Std Black', can I install and use fonts of the 'Antique Olive black' version without licensing issue?

  

  Kind regards

  Stanley

  Sounds like the paper uses the older format PostScript Type 1, the police, which can be found here Adobe - fonts: black Antique Olive®

  To allow this font you'd have to buy the family pass Adobe - fonts: Antique Olive 1 and decide if you need the Windows or Mac version.

  Std version you purchased is the new police OpenType format. Adobe - fonts: Antique Olive® Std Black

  My suggestion is to change the font used by the document for the Std version. This may cause some reformatting of the text, but this is by far the more long term solution. The PostScript Type 1 font format is very old and has been deprecated by the last major operating systems for the OpenType format.

• Regarding licensing vCenter

  Let say, I install the vCenter 64-bit DSN = databases Oracle 11 g databases

  I need to buy databases to Oracle 11 g license separately OR the vSphere 5 licenses (Foundation, Standard, Enterprise Plus) already the Oracle, including databases of license?

  The database license is not included and is separated from the vCenter licenses. Although vCenter 5 comes with Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Express for smaller deployments (up to 5 guests and 50 virtual machines)...

• issue of license of vRAM

  Hello

  I'm confused and trying to understand how this new license ESX5i will work in this scenario:

  We have five ESX5i Standard Edition (each server has 4 CPU) the total amount of memory for the virtual machine will be 96 GB / ESX.

  I understand that licenses are now checked on VCenter the total amount of VRAM as we have available for all virtual machines will be 480 GB

  One of our server is very powerful. It has 10 cores per processor and 256 GB of memory and the other servers are only 4 cores per processor with 64 GB memory

  My question is: can we really we run as many VM (up to 256 GB, for example), server cores 10 and run, for example, VM only up to 32 GB on servers with 4 cores?

  I think that the VCenter VM counts how much are amplified and how much RAM is used in the pool altogether and for example on a used ESX only 32 GB, the other cannot used 256GB, even two ESX servers have Standard license.

  It is not not going to about 480 GB constant for 365 days?

  You will appreciate all help.

  Thank you

  It's a common environment. You can run several machines virtual on a single server and less on the other. The granting of licenses and the vRAM is only recorded for the whole of your environment, not individual servers.

• Licensing vCenter 5.0 for ESX 3.5 Server update5

  I'm about to upgrade my vCenter 2.5 to 5.0 on a 64-bit VM. For now, I leave my host to 3.5 update 5. When I install the license server, can I bring over the old file from my old server vcenter 2.5 license? Also, if I do a new install of 5.0 and point to my database server, I have to use the data for this upgrade migration tool?

  Thank you

  Yes, you will need the original from the old server vcenter licenses, or you can download them on the VMware license portal.

  If you perform a new installation, Yes, you can use the data migration tool-

• Licensing vCenter with SRM

  Hi all

  I seem to be going round in circles with this question - I have read the documentation and recorded a call with the service the customer on this subject, and the answers are contradictory to say the least...

  We seek to implement a SRM solution in a new infrastructure - essentially a management cluster will use SRM failover management of virtual machines to a domain protected to a DC recovery in another city controller.  The DC recovery will be dark for normal operations, only more direct when MRS. failover occurs and will not host virtual machines.

  The question I have vCenter licenses of MRS. The documentation states that, during failover of a vCenter server from a site protected for a recovery site hosting any other virtual machines, only 1 vCenter license is required. However the VMware licenses team said the 2 licenses are required for automatic restoration of VMs for the protected site of origin once he recovered.

  So, who is? Any thoughts anyone (who is not a dealer or someone trying to sell me licenses)? Happy qualify points if necessary to answer the question...

  See you soon.

  Jeremy.

  the vcenter in Dominican Republic must be put under tension and linked with the SRM server of the RD, in this scenario, it's actually light and 2nd license is necessary.

• Licensing vCenter and vSphere/installation

  I have some difficulty to consolidate the vm for a client versions.

  vSphere Essentials Kit includees vCenter Server and Agents for up to 3 guests, but the hosts did not have vMotion/HA

  http://store.VMware.com/store/VMware/en_US/DisplayProductDetailsPage/ProductID.126843700?RESID=TdLD3AoBAlkAAA1YCNoAAAAO & = 1306272327419 rests

  vSphere Standard license includes support for vMotion and HA

  http://www.VMware.com/products/vSphere/buy/editions_comparison.html

  Can I buy two Standard vSphere licenses and a vSphere Essentials Kit License HA and vMotion? The price including 1 year support package would be $3 430 instead of the vSphere Essentials Plus of a package (for 3 machines) to $4 369

  If this is not the case, what makes different product versions? Is it possible for vMotion/HA for only two guests at a lower price?

  The answer is no, vSphere Essentials only can be used with the host Essentials license license and may not be used with another license.

  The second answer is Yes, use the essential package more vSphere. It includes VMotion and HA.
