vCloud licence when moving from1.5 to 5.1

I currently run a vCloud 1.5 environment connected to vCenter 5.0 and ESXi 5.0 and plan to re-build from scratch the vCloud Cells with 5.1

I was just thinking about the licences required to achieve this and wondered if I'd be able to enter the same serial number I used for 1.5 with 5.1

For various reasons neither the vCenter server or ESXi hosts can be upgraded to 5.1 yet so I'm only concerned with vCloud.

Can anyone tell me how I'm supposed to licence vCD 5.1?

Hi

Welcome to the communities.

I am not sure you can still use that older version key with new product.

But 99 % you cannot use 1.5 key with new version 5.1.
