• 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.

  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.

• 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.

• 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 vSphere 5 Essentials Kit for 3 guests (3 physical servers)

  Hello

  I currently use the number of servers with the free version of VMWare ESXi 5.

  So now I want to use more RAM and want to have more tools like backup tool, clone.

  I've been reading in vmware site but it makes me a bit of confusion.

  Can someone clarify this for me:

  1. what should I do after the 'VMware vSphere Essentials Kit' command that allows me to manage 3 physical servers, while I use "VMware vSphere Client" free edition?

  2 should I change or action with "VMware vSphere Hypervisor?

  3. the fee of $495 is a right to life or it's annual fee? The subscription is required for first year only, is that correct?

  4. "VMware vSphere Essentials Kit' supports up to 192 GB of RAM per physical server and max of 32 GB of RAM per VM?

  5. What is the difference with "VMware vSphere Standard" edition?

  It's a few links I've read:

  www.VMware.com/Products/vSphere/compare.html

  Store.VMware.com/Store/VMware/en_US/Home

  Thank you very much!

  Post edited by: a.p. fixed the title (in capital letters)

  1 + 2) Just enter the new license key. No need to reinstall the hosts or stop the virtual machines. In the oder to the Manager of all 3 hosts from the same management interface, you must configure vCenter Server, which is included in the Kit of Essentials.

  3.) after the initial purchase, it's your decision if you renew the subscription after the first year.

  4.) there have been a few changes since release of vSphere regulatory policy 5. With the release of vSphere 5.5 all material limitations (cores per CPU and RAM) have been removed (see http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/vsphere_pricing.pdf).

  5.) see page 6 in Licensing, Pricing and packaging white paper

• VSphere Essentials Plus - upgrading

  Hi people,

  Big Question?  :|    Is it possible to pass of VSphere Essentials / Essentials more of VSphere Standard or Enterprise?

  I looked up and down, and it seems that it is not possible, including some messages in forums about the Essentials VS as a 'end product'.

  Is this true?

  Is same thing with VMotion for VS Essentials, possible to allow this feature?

  Thanks in advance for any idea,

  IS

  Things are changed.

  It is now possible.

• VCenter device licenses?  It includes Essentials more bundle?

  I noticed that VMWare has a device of vcenter that is prepackaged without having to build your own operating system, and then load the software VCenter.

  My Essentials Plus bundle gives right to me to use the device of Vcenter server or do I have to use the Windows with VCenter for Windows operating system?

  vCenter is vCenter.  The fact that it is that a different host OS does not change the operation of vCenter.

  If you have a license for vCenter 5.0 it will work anyway.

• VMWare vSphere Essentials Plus Kit

  My apologies in advance if this is posted in the wrong place - I'm going round and round, trying to find answers and appropriate to place.

  I have reflected on vSphere Essentials Plus Kit for 3 guests and just have a few questions.

  (1) the limitation specified 2 CPUs.  Does mean physical cores?  For example, I currently have a small number of virtual machines running on a HP DL360 G5 which has processor Xeon.  ESXi is reported as 2, but 8 cores.  So in this example VMWare will consider this 2 CPU or 8 CPU? (I realize that this material is not compatible with vSphere V5, but I'd be curious to understand the principle of limitation)

  (2) is in any way to migrate to ESXi 4.1 vSphere Essentials Plus Kit (which I suppose is 5.1?) because it would take me a hardware and software upgrade.  Or am I better implementation of a new system and use something like vCenter Converter to move virtual machines?

  (3) is there such a thing as a vSphere Essentials Plus Kit evaluation?  If this is not the case, how can I do for my test environment.  I don't want to invest in a new hardware/software, if for some reason any that does not work for me

  I'm looking to move to ESXi for reasons of redundancy and reslience.  I have only 1 ESXi box run currently with about 6 VM I'm not a major user and I think that more Kit Essentials fits the Bill on all the rest.

  Thanks in advance for your comments and advice.

• 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.

• Upgrade infrastructure vSphere Essentials Plus 5.0

  I need to upgrade an infrastructure of VMware vSphere Essentials Plus 5.0 2 nodes of ESXi 5.0 and Windows server 2008 R2 based vCenter (virtual).

  I want to upgrade to vSphere 5.5 U2.

  Can I use the standard VMware CD to upgrade the host or vCenter or should I use Essentials more specific CD?

  Based on what I saw on KB 2057795 I should update the vCenter first, ESXi nodes later.

  Can I upgrade from 5.0 to 5.5 U2 or should I perform any intermediate task?

  Is the update process, I need to run described anywhere?

  Can I use the standard VMware CD to upgrade the host or vCenter or should I use Essentials more specific CD?

  There is no difference between the installation media... the same ISO can be used for all editions of vSphere/vCenter.

  Based on what I saw on KB 2057795 I should update the vCenter first, ESXi nodes later.

  Yes, it is in order, all first the vCenter Server and vSphere ESXi hosts.

  Can I upgrade from 5.0 to 5.5 U2 or should I perform any intermediate task?

  You can go directly to version 5.5 Update 2, but for vSphere, ESXi hosts don't forget to check the HCL first just to make sure that your host supports version 5.5 Update 2.

  Is the update process, I need to run described anywhere?

• 5 of VSphere and VMware vSphere Essentials Licensing

  I just the unit of vCenter installed and put my license keys in for VMware vSphere Essentials Bundle - (version 5.0) - license - 3 guests - up to 2 processors by host

  However, when I connect via vSphere client of web it says I have a key that expires in 60 days (the assessment key). I can't delete this key. I'll find myself unable to manage my VM with vSphere Web Client in 60 days?

  Man, this approval is confusing!

  

  Thank you!

  Post edited by: a.p. - in gray license keys!

  Looks like that you always use your evaluation key for your instance of vCenter instead of your purchased key.  If you click on the tab of systems vCenter server you should be able to pass the eval on a key your purchased key.  That should solve your problem.
