Hi Folks, Is it possible to re-use the existing vCenter and vSphere 5.0 for the View deployment. Can I just replace the vCenter license with the vCenter Desktop license, without re-installing the vCenter? Also can I just replace the vSphere License with the vSphere Desktop license, without re-installing the vSphere? Thanks
Yes and Yes.
When you input a new vSphere license you will be able to select which license your host uses.
That is exactly what I did when I purchased my vSphere desktop licenses. You just to have to make sure those things assigned a desktop licnse are only running desktop workloads per the eula.
