VMware used to have just a single download for the hypervisor that worked with all license models, regardless, and the features were unlocked when the lic was applied.

Now I see VMware has a separate download for each hypervisor per license model.

Question is this:

If I build out free ESXi at DR site using the free hypervisor download, can I license it later with a enterprise plus license without having to download the enterprise plus hypervisor and reinstalling it when it comes time to fail over for DR event?  After all, VMware licenses float.  so if  production goes down, I can float and apply those licenses to the DR site with no worries.

Just want to be certain I don't have to rebuild the hypervisors in the above scenario.  The fact that there is a separate download for each license model is a concern and I'm scratching my head over it..
