Versione ESXI

Buongiorno,

da dove posso verificare la vaserione di ESXi installlata e il tipo di licenza, se a pagamento o free?

Saluti.

Welcome to the Community,

I hope it's ok to reply in English.

Assuming that you are using the Web Client, you can find the license information, when you select "Manage" -> "Licensing".

This page will show you whether the host runs in "Evaluation Mode", runs with the free "VMware vSphere # Hypervisor" license, or another edition.

thanks for the reply, but if in this case I use the vsphere client? is it always possible to see the license details?

Greetings.

Yes, from vsphere client you can see the license details

Launch vSphere client session --> home --> click on licensing icon under administration.

With the good, old vSphere Client connected to a standalone host, you'll find the information in "Licensed Features" in the host's "Configuration" tab.

Thanks for the reply.

in this case it is a free license, is not it?

[a_p_]

Yes, that's the free edition. VMware calls it "VMware vSphere 5 Hypervisor" in the licensing overview.

perfect!!!! if I want to update the version at 6.0, can I upgrade it directly to the 6.0 update 2 or before I have to do the update in sequence starting from 6.0 -> 6.0 updae 1 -> 6.0 update 2?

Greetings.

That depends on your current version, here is the upgrade path

VMware Product Interoperability Matrices

Check the source and destination version, if it is green you can update directly to that version, else you have to follow the chart and proceed.
