Licenses

[cn41]

I have a new license key for one of my hosts, and can't figure out how to apply it.  I do not have the option to add it via the Client, because  when I click..Administration...< there should be License or something there, and its not.

Anyone have any ideas?

I'm have a standalone host..no vCenter server yet.

I have moved this to a more approroiate forum -

When in vSphere and your on the host go to Configuration and then down in the middle select License Features. Once there select Edit towards the top right and you'll be able to update the license. See Attached PIC.
