Updating Essentials (non Plus) to a vSphere Standard 6 CPU's (VS6-ES-STD-AK-UG-C)

Hello, is there a way to update this?

I found here an update pack:"VS6-ES-STD-AK-UG-C"

My questions:

  • Do I need reinstall vcenter essentials or just input the new License to the existing vCenter?
  • Is a how-to given how to do this update?

Just add the license, no need for reinstall.

As already mentioned, it's only a matter of replacing the license keys. The binaries for vCenter Serer, and ESXi are the same regardless of the edition, it's just the license key which locks/unlocks features.
