Hi thanks. I nearly asked 'where can I get the license' .. but thought to give it a quick try ... and it's rather obvious (although I overlooked it initially) I entered the key and it works well. Two small quenstions remain: 1) Now that the ESXi 5.5 'HP flavour' is running, do I need to follow the HP upgrades, or do I follow the plain vmware upgrades ? Eg: on vmware there is an 'upgrade 1' for 5.5 available already. 2) Do I need to install the management tools separately? they seem to be included in hypervisor and not in ESXi itself. Thanks, C.

Hello, I am a bit confused regarding free/licensing. I wanted to install hypervisor 5.5 (with Exsi) on a Proliant server. As I noticed HP had a customised Exsi 5.5, I thought I better install that one. Since the free Hypervisor contains the Exsi, I (wrongly) assumed the HP Exsi would be free as well. Only to discover after installation that it is a 60 day trial How should I continue now, to get the free Hypervisor 5.5 on the server? - 'upgrade? : since the Hypervisor is 5.5-update 1, this is maybe a viable option - remove/reinstall/downgrade? - insert a free license key? I've only played around a bit with some test VM's, so it's not dramatic if I need to start from scratch again ... but preferably not Thanks in advance Christof
