ESXI 6.5 trial 60 day , limitation?

hi !

i've installed esxi 6.5 in demo mode (60 day trial)

for  testing the better configuration (to choose hyper-v or Vmware)

Hardware is hp D360 g9- 1  Xeon 10 core 2.2

Problem:

i've create a VM  but in CPU configuration appear  only 1 CPU(correct) , an 1 Vcore (???) (I cannot change nothing) for  VM

hypertread visualizes 20 logical core (1 , 2 ,4-7 etc )

i have try to set hypertread to 10 but in stress test i see  the vm used only max 10 % of machine processor GHZ (i want use a 6 core - 60%)

it is a limitation of the version trial or a my error of configuration?

Tanks

Welcome to the Community,

while in evaluation mode, ESXi has enabled all features of the Enterprise Plus edition, so you're not limited by ESXi itself.

What you may want to check is, which version of the Embedded Host Client is installed, and consider to update it if. (latest version available from ESXi Embedded Host Client )

Also check whether the guest operating system supports the # of CPUs/cores which you have configured for the VM.
