How many CPUs in each server? How many cores per CPU?

(You've created 2 separate threads asking this question, both in the wrong forum area - I've reported this thread asking for it to be moved, and reported the duplicate thread asking for it to be removed)

this a very simple rule, but take addition variable, the processor clock, is important for the app performances (Threads x Cores) x Physical CPU = Number vCPU ,  for design different vendors recommend you a 4:1 or max 5:1 but in reality is more, this number is very  conserver

Hello.

vSphere Acceleration Kits are all-in-one convenience bundles that provide a simple way for customers to purchase all the necessary components to set up a new VMware environment. Each kit consists of six processor licenses for vSphere and a license for one instance of vCenter Server Standard.

vSphere Acceleration Kits decompose into their individual kit components after purchase. This allows customers to upgrade and renew SnS for each individual component on its own schedule.

For your 3 servers (max. 2 CPUs per server) you need a vSphere Aceration Standard Kit

In the following link, you can check up to which version is supported for your servers
