vCenter licensing

[Cuthbert01]

Wanted to know if vCenter with Foundation license can manage 2 hosts with vSphere Standard licenses

[IRIX201110141 · Accepted solution]

Yes it can!

vCenter Foundation can manage up to 4 Hosts (no socket limit) and can be later upgraded to vCenter standard(unlimited Host) when needed.  You can join with ESXi Standard or Enterprise Plus.
