Mixed view licensing?

Similar Questions

• View Licenses

  So I have a bunch of different license codes to enter.  I put them in the administrator of the display, but I don't "see nothing change, it seems it took them, but I'd like to see a count of licenses that I own.  Anyone know how I can check this?

  -Gunnar

  You are right. We do not apply the limit of license as a strict limit in sight. The permission is applied by the EULA.

  I just find this external article that is actually fairly descriptive view license:

  I hope that helps you!

• View license - mixed environment

  Is it possible to run a view environment 6.0 with a key Standard and Enterprise?  From what I can see that you can enter 1 key.

  We are interested in the use of a standard for the majority of our users license and then use an enterprise license for a small subset of users for RDS access.

  As you have noted, it will accept only a key.   You will need to you enter the key license Enterprise and then equip the checks to make sure that you do not exceed your number of allowed licenses.

• Horizon view license constraints

  Hello

  I was invited to ask a question about the limitations of the license mode by our office team and what they are allowed to run. Currently we have the following licenses:

  vCenter Server	vCenter Server Standard 6 for Horizon
  See connection to the server	Horizon 6 Standard view
  ESXi hosts	vSphere 6 for desktop PC

  They run an environment seen horizon with desktops VDI running Windows 7 on a cluster of blades ESXi.

  They would like to add a new cluster ESXi on which run Windows 7 virtual machines that are not part of the view of the Horizon / VDI, under the same instance of vCenter. These virtual machines is designed to test applications package for SCCM.

  My understanding is that this is not allowed and they would need an instance separate vCenter to manage this cluster of ESXi and VMs. We have spare parts, Enterprise Plus licenses that could be classified in the new cluster ESXi, but I suspect that he could still not run the instance of vCenter "vCenter Server 6 Standard for Horizon".

  Can someone clarify the on the issue? I was unable to find the official wording of VMware on what is / is not allowed.

  Thank you.

  Horizon suite comes with VMware Workstation, which can be used for packing.

  This document seems to be official and can provide clarifications on the side of vSphere (not so much on the side of vCenter):

  http://www.VMware.com/files/PDF/products/horizon-view/VMware-horizon-view-pricing-Licensing-FAQ.PDF

  In a virtual office environment Horizon, vSphere Desktop can be used to power the virtual desktop, as well as the underlying infrastructure for the VDI environment. Include the connection to the server, server security, active directory, tracking tools and other infrastructure directly related to and exclusive to the VDI environment. Storage servers, for example, would not be included.

• View license 5 first add-on horizon and Horizon 6

  Thank you.

  If you pull the top of your license manager in my vmware. Then change the drop-down list for the upgrade license keys.

• Scenario of horizon view licenses

  End-user settled "on-the-job training" to show off their software to potential customers. Will be a maximum of 130 'students' to connect to the environment at a given time.

  Part the trickiest is - due to the software, they strive, each "pupil" should be connected to two desktops at the same time, but using the account from 13:00 (if possible).

  Does that mean they need to license for 260 concurrent connections, or are they OK with 130 simultaneous licenses to see?

  Given that VMware View is allowed on the "connected at the same time office" you need 260 licenses in this scenario.

• Microsoft within VMware View license count

  Fact the license count is the same, with the authorization of the view? Based on the concurrent user (for Desktop OS license). How about the ex officio license?

  In the affirmative, please help me with a valid link to Microsoft. I can't find it...

  Thank you

  Hello

  There is a point, you should be aware, when using desktop Windows OS in virtualized environments.

• View license

  Dear Sir

  Can someone explain this printscreen?

  

  I have 4 desktop pools linked clone technology then what is the meaning of this number?

  Kind regards

  Kenny

  The left column represents the current active connections, so you currently have two people connected on linked clone machines.    The right column represents the number of simultaneous high session you had, that would be 9.

• Number of licenses of view

  Hello

  We started with 10 licenses of company Horizon view, and later, we bought another pack of 10 users. We have license concurrent users.

  In the display console, I can only enter a license key. The console shows that we are allowed, but does not show for the number of users. How to view licensing works technically? All I see is the use.

  Thank you

  Edy

  The license key only unlocks functionality and does not govern the number of users.

  You don't need to enter the new license key anywhere, just to keep them safe in case you need to prove that you have the required number of licenses for your users.

• Extra license is required to view security server

• What happens if I mix n match licenses?

  Current situation: 2 hosts x ESX 3.5 with Enterprise level licenses

  Future situation: 3 guests x ESXi 4.1

  I was wondering what happens if I buy just a Standard license rather than an enterprise for the additional server license.  I realize that this server then not be able to do things like:

  -Storage vMotion

  -vStorage API Multipathing

  This will affect all my servers, or I will simply not be able to get my new server to participate with these functions?  I buy wrong if I try to save a few bucks by mixing and matching of licenses?

  You can mix OK licenses and as you mention simply want to have some characteristics of the host of the 3rd.  Here are the steps to add / allocation of licenses - http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1010839.

• VSphere license and view question

  I am confused with some of the licenseing I. Go to the portal I have a few new licenses that have been purchased but I was unable to get a good understanding on what the finctionality has each license.

  My concern is the following two licenses.

  1 virtual Center 4 standard for view - what is this turn? It seems that the only view was through the connection to the license server. So I added my view licenses 4 Ent and the Prime Minister in the connection to the server. What is the right way?

  2 Vsphere 4 for computer to office don't know what it is.

  Thank you.

  You have purchased licenses for ESX and vCenter just for the placement of virtual machines that will be connected using VMware View. Will have the same features as the standard version of vSphere, but you will have a number of VM and not licensed per processor. And, of course, use it as a non-vue environment is not compatible EULA.

• vCenter VDI Licensing questions

  Hello

  Basically, my question is if a standard of vCenter license can manage hosts with VDI and Non - VDI workload without violating the EULA.

  For a more detailed explanation, please see below:

  Thank you very much in advance

  concerning

  Luis

  ----

  Environment:

  -vSphere 4

  -Cisco UCS

  Customer has acquired the following licenses:

  -1 vCenter server standard (Cisco OEM)

  -vSphere Enterprise Plus for 16 cores (Cisco OEM)

  also, as VDI will run on the VI client thus acquired a set of 5 view come with:

  -1 Server vCenter for VDI

  -See the first 5 Add - on licenses (200)

  -vSphere Enterprise more to View 5 (200)

  The current implementation has a unique vCenter and 8 blades, divided into two groups:

  -6 guests for Admin more application VMs

  -2 VMS VDI host

  Scenario has):

  -If we use the vCenter VDI license, according to the "View4LicensingFAQ.PDF" of VMware, support Non - VDI running in a VDI VI is not allowed (see below)

  Q: can I run other workloads from server on the vSphere which is included in the view?

  A: No. vSphere and vCenter beam view components are limited to desktop deployments.  A desktop virtual machine is defined as a virtual machine that is running the following operating systems:

  Windows 95/98, Windows 2000 Professional, Windows XP Professional, Windows Vista Ultimate, Windows Vista business, or Windows Vista business, Windows 7.

  The only exception to this rule are the elements that make up the virtualized infrastructure Fund (View Manager, vCenter Server, a Broker for the connections and/or management and tools used for Virtual Machine (s) of Office ESX hosted within an operating system of a server performance monitoring only).  Download the EULA here for details http://www.vmware.com/download/eula/.

  Scenario B):

  -If we use the Standard-vCenter vCenter license, according to the "View4LicensingFAQ.PDF" of VMware this is not recommended (see below)

  Can Q: you the customer mix vSphere hosts who have licenses from the beams of the view and vSphere license via vSphere la carte?

  R: a mixed environment is not recommended because there is risk of workloads server live-migration of a cluster of vSphere (via VMware vMotion™) in a scenario of disaster recovery for a license to view vSphere host, what would constitute a violation of the EULA. Guests are asked to keep their separate environments or buy to the map view to entitle the deployment of a mixed environment vSphere, vCenter, and licenses.

  
  Leaving apart from the facts that:

  -View licenses need to be reclassified from vSphere5 in vSphere4

  -The client may have bought more than necessary licenses

  My thoughts are:

  • -I have not read anywhere that the use of a Standard-vCenter to cover the VDI and the workload of Non - VDI is not possible at the technical level.
  • -I'm not 100% sure that it is aligned with the EULA
  • -Similar situation for ESXi hosts accommodation VDI VMs licenses

  If you use the view bundle vCenter only VDI workloads are allowed.    If you use vCenter who bought outside of the whole of the display, you can run anything you want with it.

• VMware ESX4 and license as single Cluster View4

  We wanted to test VMware View for a possible deployment, so we bought 2 (10

  packs of user licenses) of View3 with subscription.  So, by the time I got 4

  value processors to ESX 3.5.  We put together 3 physical boxes capable of each

  to organize each 4 processors.  To begin, we have 2 boxes with a single processor

  each (6 cores per processor) and the 3rd box has 2 CPUs (even 6 hearts

  each).  The 3 boxes are managed inside of vCenter Server 1

  cluster.  The plan was to buy more licenses of view as necessary and much more

  physical processors as needed.  Now, here's the problem I see.

  Soon I also want to make virtualization of servers in the same cluster.  Now

  that we have upgraded to View4 the authorisation system has completely changed.

  Instead of one per processor, they are doing one per VM license.

  So my problem/question is...

  How to make a group of ESX4 servers share licensing for both view

  4 (for workstation virtualization) and the right ESX4 (virtualization server)?

  As far as I can tell the new license is apples and oranges.

  View is now authorized by VM and ESX is still licensed per processor.  My

  thought was under the former regime of license, I was responsible for ensuring that I have

  did not run workstation VMs I saw more licenses for and on the server

  side have no more virtual processors dedicated virtual servers that I had

  physical cores in the physical processors I distributed under license ESX.  This regime

  was compatible on a single cluster.  But since I can only say an ESX

  Server code for a single license whether licensed View4 or an ESX4

  license, I see no way for it to shoot with the new permit system.

  How to mix ESX and view within the same group?

  I don't know, I'm entirely. But will try to clarify. View license has not really changed. It has always been by VM CPU not and still is. He was also THAT controlled EULA that infrastructure under license under the notice could not be used to run the office workloads. No desktop and server. Now, if you want to mix they is to make vSphere license and add the view components that do not include parts VI3/vSphere.

  Please see the folloing for more details.

• Update license key OEM for vmware fusion

  I'm moving from a windows7 (64-bit Home Premium) to a Mac Book. I want to import my old PC as a virtual machine using VMware fusion.

  I am trying to determine what is necessary from the point of view license.

  The original license is OEM so I think that it may have an update - is just a case of getting a new license key?

  I tried the update by using the update at any time of mechanism, but this no longer works

  How can I get the appropriate license change to allow me to get the installed virtual machine?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Thank you for your reply and sorry for the late reply.

  You can follow the procedure referred to in article of VMware Fusion below to migrate your system of operating existing for Windows 7 to your new MacBook.

  After that, get Windows 7 successfully migrated you will need to purchase a new license Windows 7 key (rightly underlined André Da Costa, OEM licenses are linked to all first computer, you install and activate Windows on).

  You need to activate your migration to Windows 7 operating system with the new license key.

  You don't need to reinstall Windows 7 when you migrate your operating system on a new computer through VMware.
