Hello, I have 3 Vsphare Essential Plus 7 licence (6 CPU), I want to consolidade this licences in one vcenter only. What´s version i need to this? Standar? Enterprise? Enterprise Plus?

Well.... there are 2 upgrade SKUs available
Each contains a vCenter Std.(unlimited Hosts) and 6x1 CPU Lics of vSphere ESXi Std. or Enterprise+.
So you should calculate uprade one of your existing EssPlus bundles and adding the needed single Sphere ESXi licenses to it. I have my doubt that upgrading all 3 to a Accel.Kit because you always gets a vCenter with and paying SnS for 3 of them might be a overkill unless you need different vCenters and like to link them together.
Note: You need to buy at minimum 2 add. month of SnS but i highly suggest to get 1Y or better 3Ys. Your existing SnS of the EssPlus bundles will be converted and combined.
The vSphere Enterprise edition dropped a loooooooong time ago and you cant buy it any more. Also in a future vSphere release you cant use the old enterprise licenses any more.

Hello,
I guess your best choice is vCenter Std, for Essentials Plus, you won't need Enterprise edition

Thats for sure not a valid option.
Any given "Essenentials" only works together with other Essentials parts and not Non-Essentials. The hosts will disconnect after a short period of time from the wrong vCenter.
