    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I finally phoned License support and got it solved. I had to downgrade the 6 vCenter Operations Manager licenses in order to see them. My hosts are all on ESX 5.1. The downgrade is done from my.vmware.com --&amp;gt; License Keys --&amp;gt; I want to: Downgrade Licenses. It worked as expected after that. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi All,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;How in the world do I allocate VMware vSphere with Operations Management 5.5 Standard licenses to a host? The implementation was green field so we bought the acceleration kit for vCenter server that comes with 6 licenses of vSphere with Operation Management. I've got Ops Manager working well and itself is licensed and can see all the hosts. We also bought 12 further licenses to have 18 in total, and I can see the other 12 and allocate them to hosts, but cannot see the original 6. I never could.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper" image-alt="License Issue2.png"&gt;&lt;img src="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/50820i4F47DBB854D31E8F/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="License Issue2.png" alt="License Issue2.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper" image-alt="License Issue1.png"&gt;&lt;img src="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/50812i324A9410F387936D/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="License Issue1.png" alt="License Issue1.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any help appreciated.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Andre&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;From your screenshot I see the 6 down at the bottom.&amp;nbsp; Does it not show up as a selection option when licensing hosts? Also it looks like the additional 12 that you bought don't include the operations management?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;The only lic keys you have that are good for ops mgrs are:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1. vCenter Operations Manager Standard 5.6 (unlim), this is likely the 'free'/'honor-systems' key we give out for legacy situations.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2. VMware vSphere with Operations Management 5.5 Standard, this is for 6 vSphere cores.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;There is no other vC Ops licensing visible in the screen you show.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Also, keep in mind that you can only use 1 license key per vC Ops installation.. you cannot combine multiple keys. So no licensing of VMs using A per-VM key, then a handful of hosts socket/processor keys.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks for the replies,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;@Gradinka, thanks for the screenshot. I know where to go for the licensing, but...&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;@markdjones82 ...yes, the problem is that I don't have the option to choose one of the 6 licenses when licensing a host. And yes, the licenses are a mixture of both since we started with the acceleration kit, which came with vCenter Operations Manager and then we topped it up with 12 Standard licenses. I used up the Standard licenses first and now want to start using the other 6.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;@markj Thanks for the post. I removed the license that was available from the download site and instead assigned the license with the 6 CPUs to the vCenter Operations Manager. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;This is where I am at:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper" image-alt="LicenseHost.png"&gt;&lt;img src="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/50840iC0DB8B4E893E5B72/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="LicenseHost.png" alt="LicenseHost.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;As you can see, the 6 CPU licenses for vCenter Operations Manager are now showing. &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any more ideas?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Andre&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
