vSphere vMotion and 5 new license model

Hi, I'm still not clear to the new vSphere license model 5.

VRAM right how does not limit the guest computers?

Let's say that if I buy essential more that supports 3 guests with 2 processors each and its right of vRAM is 32 GB for each processor (3 guests x 2 CPU x 32 = 192 GB MAX).

It means that I have 192GO in the pool of vRAM?

So I don't have that one host, I have 192GO for guests running on a single host?

If the maximum is 32 GB for each host, which is produced in the following conditions?

1 buy one essential plus

2. create 2 ESXi hosts to make HA

3. 5 guest computers run on an ESXi host, and their total of vRAM is almost 32 GB

4. a guest computer is running on a different host ESXi and put the ESXi prompt second to the first vMotion ESXi.

5 vMotion will be failed due to the vRAM on the ESXi frist limitaion?

License is done on a base taken by CPU, which means that you must have a license by socket in each server that you license.

Each instance of license also has a right to vRAM.  In the case of most, it's 32 GB/socket.

The Essentials Plus kit includes 6 processor socket and vCenter licenses.

If you have one host managed by this vCenter, the straight of vRAM (192GB) would be available for this single host, as vSphere Essentials 6 CPU socket licenses are grouped in vCenter, and that a single host to assign the right to the vRAM.

Don't forget that the vRAM is simply the amount of memory assigned to the virtual machines, not the amount of memory you can install in a host.

See the book of Pricing and packaging vSphere 5 for more details (http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/vsphere_pricing.pdf) you can also double check everything with account team, VAR or Integrator of which you intend to purchase licenses.

Now, if you have a cluster of high availability of vSphere, you won't want to use 100% of your memory on each host anyway, as you'll want to keep resources available for a failover situation and reserved.  For 3 guests, as example and no overcommitment of memory, you'll want to make sure that at least ~ 33% of your resources of memory are not used in the event of a host failure.  In the case of say, Essentials Plus, you will have 192 GB of vRAM available straight to your cluster and with a distributed evenly the workload, it would mean 64 GB of vRAM active on each host.  To compensate for HA, hosts resources would probably be sized at a minimum of 96 GB of RAM physical each (64 GB for the active virtual machines and 32 GB for memory of failover ability) or more, depending on the tolerance of the use.  That would mean 288 GB of RAM purchase physical for 3 guests, while only 192GB is licensed based on the right of vRAM.

If you have only 2 hosts in your cluster, you always have access to the 192GB vRAM right of the kit of Essentials Plus.  Obviously, the numbers will work out differently.  You can use the 96 GB of vRAM on each host, but at this point, you can buy your hosts with at least 192 GB of physical RAM each to accommodate a failure of the host (again, assuming that no overcommitment of memory on the host).

License in common based on a vCenter server to manage your licenses.

You will always be able to use your CS6 products and can buy the same both on adobe.com. Add to that, you can now get the updated versions of CC as well as sharing and storage features.

  • vSphere Licensing Model

    Hello

    Can anyone help me please with the vSphere licensing model. For instanace if I buy 1 vSphere Enterprise Plus license then how many ESX servers can fit into this license. And let's say I have 4 ESX servers with 2 CPU (6 cores) each how vSphere then Enterprise license more what I need to buy?

    In addition, vSphere Enterprise license more contain the vCenter license as well?

    Any link, the document about the license will be really helpful

    Thank you

    Mohammed

    > For instanace if I buy 1 vSphere Enterprise Plus license then how many ESX servers can fit into this license

    1 ESX with 1 CPU (multicore).

    > And I have 4 ESX servers with 2 CPU (6 cores) each how vSphere then Enterprise license more what I need to buy?

    ESX 4 * 2 CPUs = 8 licenses.

    > Also, vSphere Enterprise license more does not contain the vCenter license as well?

    VCenter should be purchased separately but a vCenter is enough. You don't have to buy an another vCenter if you want to buy a few new ESX licenses.

  • Regarding vSphere VCA and vMotion

    Hi all

    I have several questions about vMotion and VCA, can anyone help?

    1. If I mix several types of CPU (from the same supplier of CPUS) in a vSphere without EVC cluster active, what will happen? can I vMotion VM on the host?

    2. I can vMotion VM Cluster with older CPU for the Cluster with more recent CPU? Assume that CVS is not activated on the two groups.

    3. can I vMotion VM Cluster with older CPU for the Cluster with more recent CPU? Assume that CVS is not enabled on the source cluster, but active on the destination Cluster.

    4. I can vMotion VM Cluster with older CPU for the Cluster with more recent CPU? Suppose that EVC is enabled on the source cluster, but not active on the destination Cluster.

    5 can I vMotion of virtual machine of a stand-alone ESXi host on an active EVC cluster? Assume that the CPU is the same.

    6 the KB "EVC and CPU compatibility FAQ" below, if we disable CVS on a cluster, the virtual machine can only be migrated to hosts with CPU even or more.

    Why virtual machines is only able to move to other ESX/ESXi hosts that are in the same generation of CPU or more? It's in front of my knowledge.

    VMware KB: EVC and CPU compatibility FAQ

    What is the impact on vSphere features of the Cluster when I turn off the CVS mode?

    To turn off the CVS on a cluster mode, it affects vSphere Cluster features in the following ways:

    • vSphere HA (High availability): vSphere HA is not affected because of the cyclic power failover virtual machines when you start on a new host. This allows the VM picking up the new ID CPU and it allows to start without problem
    • vSphere DRS (Distributed Resource Scheduler):
      • vMotion: virtual machines is only able to move to other ESX/ESXi hosts that are in the same generation of CPU or more. If the DRS is configured for fully automated, this can result in virtual machines, eventually migrating to hosts on the cluster with the generation of CPU more old where they cannot be moved via vMotion on different hosts with a newer processor generation.
      • Storage vMotion: virtual machines are able to be moved to Storage vMotion with EVC mode disabled in a cluster
    • Location of the pagefile: it is not affected.

    Thank you.

    1. If I mix several types of CPU (from the same supplier of CPUS) in a vSphere without EVC cluster active, what will happen? can I vMotion VM on the host?

    (a) you very well can vMotion virtual computers between the hosts with identical processors within the cluster.

    (b) for vMotions on different hosts, it depends on CPU instruction set parity and orientation, i.e. the older generation-> new generation or vice versa.

    Consider the following: when a VM is turned on at the start, it is presented in UC sets from the physical host, where it has been turned on. It must keep these settings until the virtual machine is turned off, any host it is migrated to in the meantime. Therefore, as long as a host provides these CPU instruction sets, it can be vMotioned it. Further instructions on new hosts games is irrelevant for this and just hidden-away of the guest. So old-> new should be fine, but new-> old most likely will not work because the virtual machine works with games of additional CPU instructions that only is simply not supported by the older physical processor.

    2. I can vMotion VM Cluster with older CPU for the Cluster with more recent CPU? Assume that CVS is not activated on the two groups.

    Yes, generally vMotion shall function in older generations of CPU to the most recent, the same common CPU instruction sets are supported by the destination CPU host and enabled in the BIOS.

    3. can I vMotion VM Cluster with older CPU for the Cluster with more recent CPU? Assume that CVS is not enabled on the source cluster, but active on the destination Cluster.

    4. I can vMotion VM Cluster with older CPU for the Cluster with more recent CPU? Suppose that EVC is enabled on the source cluster, but not active on the destination Cluster.

    Yes, the same general vMotion as explained above requirements. If CVS is enabled on any, both or a cluster does not matter (of course provided a configured VCA level is not reverse the physical hardware capabilities 'new' and 'old').

    5 can I vMotion of virtual machine of a stand-alone ESXi host on an active EVC cluster? Assume that the CPU is the same.

    Yes, the same general vMotion as explained above requirements. A stand-alone host is exactly the same thing treated as a non - active EVC cluster.

  • Possibility of setting up new vSphere 4 and pass the ESX 3.5 hosts?

    The upgrade path makes me nervous (am I too paranoid?).

    In any case, I have enough material and storage SAN to configure a new vSphere environment.

    Is it possible to install a new enviornemnt and separate vSphere 4 and then migrate the 3.5 environment hosts? The doc has always start with VC upgrade to version 4 and be careful not to break stuff...

    I actually finished a project a few days ago in this respect. I deleted the machine virtual old inventory, moved with the former VM of the LUN to the storage for the new environment group and added to the inventory again. Of course, if you do not use the same storage, it will be more in depth, but it certainly can be done. The plan was to do what weinstein said in his post, regarding the old host to the new Victoria Cross add, but I move the first LUN and had to finish like I did. It went well and I don't have problems with the virtual machine again.

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    I want to move my old 8900 MyCast Weather on my new 9550 but App World will not produce a new license code and continues to fed the former.  I followed the procedure below has been proposed by Garmin several times and installed, reinstalled, deleted, battery pulls and everything I can think of and nothing works.    Sure would appreciate any suggestions.

    The user goes to a new BlackBerry:

    If the user tries to download App World for the new device and newspapers by virtue

    Once again.

    If the status of an item appears as "Not available for this device", the
    point is not compatible with this model of BlackBerry.  If it turns
    available for this device later, the status changes to "uninstalled".
    and it can then be put back.

    The license key will be different for the new device because the PIN on

  • ESXi 5.1.0 adding new license

    Hello

    I installed vmware ESXi 5.1.0 with free license last year. And today a new license of vSphere Essentials 6.

    Now, I want to add new license to esx, but it gives me

    License downgrade WARNING

    Some features will be unavailable after the transfer of license

    Host: my host name

    from: unlimited

    to: unlicensed

    The following features will be unavailable

    * Up to 32 GB of memory

    * Up to 8-way SMP

    Caveat. is this normal? I would add new license without no problem safely? And now I can't add 192 GB of memory without limits?

    Thank you

    If you need to keep up with the 5.x version and not upgrade to version 6, you have you downgrade the v6 license key because it does not work with v5.x Setup.

    See VMware KB: how to move license keys in my VMware for more information on decommissioning in MyVMWare.

    That's why you get the ' to: without a license "message, because the key to the v6 is not valid in v5.

  • vSphere Enterprise Plus & SMP 8 licenses see

    Hi all

    This post is to understand in some detail more added functionality SMP 8 channels with the purchase of the vSphere enterprise than allowed.

    We just bought a new battery of vSphere with Enterprise license (guests are taken-2, 4-cores CPU based) and upgrade to vSphere another battery of existing ESX 3.5 servers (hosts are 4 socket, 4 core based processors).

    We know that, according to the license of the company, we will be able to assign our VMs a maximum of 4 vCPUs each (and up to 6 cores per physical processor).

    Should upgrade us to Enterprise Plus licensing, what would the number of vCPU max we can give in to a virtual machine in each of our farms? Would he still be 4 (since our CPUs are anyway all 4 cores) or 8 (for both the 'old' farm hosts 4 4-cores and the new farm-based based on 2 hearts 4 guests)?

    In fact it is not clear to me if the maximum number of vCPU is always equal to the number of physical processor cores (e.g.: max vCPU & lt; = carrots/physical CPU AND max vCPU & lt; = 8) or not.

    For example, I would have a crowd of vSphere license-powered Enterprise Plus and ewuipped with 2 processors 6 hearts, vCPU how can I assign to a VM as a maximum? 6 or 8?

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Best regads,

    Salvatore

    Enterprise Plus allows you to assign 8 vCPUs, Enterprise and bottom - 4.

    It does not matter the number of cores is on each physical processor. The only requirement - the total number of cores must be greater than or equal number of vCPUs you want to give a VM. So 2 quads allows you to create 8 vCPU VM.
