VROP Licensing - Mix VMware License in Cluster (Need Advice)

[azlans27]

Hi All,

I want to ask here about my client environment, related to their vrop licensing.

My client has one cluster, containing 11 hosts.

ESXi 1 - 6 has vmware vcloud suite enterprise for vsphere license, which including vrealize operation manager as I knnow (please correct me if I'm wrong)

Whiel ESXi 7 - 11 has VMware vSphere Enterprise Plus license, which exclude vrealize operation manager.

How if I want to install (implement) vRealize Operation Manager for such this environment? what is the best way? I need your feedback, guys.

I also attach the license page on this post.

Best Regars,

Azlan Syah

Create a user account that you intend to use for configuring the vsphere adapter. Give it permissions needed for ESXi 1-6

Give it no permissions for ESXi 7-11 (specify no access permissions) Doing this will allow vrops to collect on the 1-6 but not 7-11 and stay within your licences
