VMware ESXi 5.1 - license - local user count

Hi all,

I would like to ask, if there is any limit for number of local users in case of VMware vSphere 5 Hypervisor, licensed for 1 physical CPU.

We have more users using and managing different VMs in our office. It would be nice if each user will have own vSphere local username with assigned rights to his VMs. But I didn't find any information if there is any limit to this in case of free license. 5 users will be OK for us. We don't share access to our server outside company, we are using it only internally.

Thanks in advance for any comments Smiley Happy

I'm currently not aware of a limit regarding the number of local users. Why don't you simply go ahead and create the users you need, to find out whether it works.

Hi André,

thanks for your response.

I tried to create users and it works, so at least it's not limited by software. But I was not sure if there is any license limitation, so I asked here. We will see if somebody will have more information regarding this.
