NSX-T License Clarification

HI,

How the NSX-T license is applied. If in the environment we have three local NSX Manager and three global NSX Manager, how the licensed will work than. Do we need 6 license all together , one for each NSX manager. Or the license will be applied to the VIP that is assigned to the local and global NSX Manager, 

I was not able to find anything useful on the internet

The three local managers at a site will form a cluster. You apply the license once to the cluster and all 3 cluster members end up with it. You would repeat that process for the cluster at each site.

You don't need to separately license the global managers. They'll read license information from the local managers when you add them.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. It means that i will apply the licence on the virtual ip of the cluster and the all the three NSX-T manager in the cluster will use the same license.
