I don't think you can cumulate evaluations licences&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;You can assign a license to go from the evaluation mode to licensed mode.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Before trying to install a new ESXi version check the compalibility guide: &lt;A href="https://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php" title="https://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php"&gt;VMware Compatibility Guide - System Search&lt;/A&gt; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
