need help to decide on version-license-subscription

Trying to figure out the best way to go here and am hoping for some opinions

there of people with more experience with vmware.

Currently we have a virtual server in our hotsite accommodation VM 5 DR

under Vi 3.5.  We are now looking to virtualize some of our infrastructure

on our main site starting with Exchange and BES.   We have a 2003 Exchange

Server ent on 2003 server that is promoted in 2007.  The general

plan is to move Exchange to a temporary area and rebuild the server (DL380G5

Direct attached MSA60) with ESXi to host exchange and our BES

Server.  I expect only virtualize another server in the next

a few years (SQL).  After that, who knows, but I expect not too all

other than a few users crazy growth.   So now I'm trying

to understand exactly what all the licenses are while watching the

all that makes the most sense at this stage.   As I have

understand, the bundle includes a license that looks like, it gives you

Manager vCenter and update, with a one year subscription.

What is the point of the subscription?  I'm not sure that vCenter is

worth the cost in this scenario. It would make things much more convenient when / if

There are 2 operational servers, but it is certainly reasonable on their

clean.  It seems that just the ESXi race out of the box would be much

sufficient.  Advice or suggestions here would be greatly appreciated?

I also know that the essential plus offers you HA and DR capabilities but

for now we use doubletake to replicate to our servers.  Anyone

See HA as an effective better or just more profitable technically better/easier

solution?

Thank you

No problem = 0)

Well you can buy the whole at a later date and on this point is supported on your ESXi server.

Not 100% sure of support, but as far as I know if you have a support block is not serious if its ESXi or any other product of vmweare they will support.

If you have found this or other useful information, please consider awarding points to 'Correct' or 'useful '.

    Hi all

    I intend to buy cs2 from the Creative Suite and Studio 8 from a supplier in the U.S. via amazon.com. Well I buy these older applications because I'm on a tight budgegt and I'm getting a good deal. I stay in India and need to transfer the licenses on behalf of my company (individual license installed on a single machine). Need to know if this is possible and what will the process involved, because I don't want to end up buying the software and then find out that they can be transferred legally due to the old version or any other matter.
