The "free" is ESXi is called the vSphere Hypervisor. So visit https://www.vmware.com/go/get-free-esxi

to get the license key.

You dont need to reinstall the software....you only need the key.

To add to what IRIX201110141​ already posted, license keys are the same, no matter whether you are using the default VMware image, or a vendor customized one.

Hi,

Same problem as @Tarekshaheen here, licence has expired and can't get a new one. I can only get one for version  7 but it's not valid for hypervisor 6.5.

If anyone have a solution, it would be very apreciate.

 
 

Thanks
