Vsphere 4 Licensing question

[Guv]

Just an understanding on licensing, we are using vsphere 4.0.  I have my esx hosts connected to vcentre.  If i look at the vcentre licensing its set to vcentre server 4 standard.  Does that mean we are using the standard license edition.  With standard edition can you use DRS.  I have clusters already setup which allow you to tick DRS or enable DRS, so does that mean DRS is enabled and we can use, even though the licensing says standard.

Any advise

For being able to use DRS or not is all about ESX host licensing....

With vCenter standard you're all good to go....   vCenter Foundation is limited to 3 hosts only.

These are the only two versions listed in the VMware store:  http://store.vmware.com/store/vmware/en_US/DisplayProductDetailsPage/productID.126844200

Standard edition only gives you VMotion and HA only.  it could be that the cluster is in trial mode and which you will have all the features enabled.
