Vmware Esxi 6 License Key Generator For Any Software
Jan 22, 2017 VMware vSphere 6.5 is good. It’s really good. It also now comes free with a vCenter license and grants you 25 OSIs. The FAQ indicates multiple hosts can be assigned licenses but when I added a vCenter it said this license only works for a single host. The message appeared intentional so I have to assume this changed from vSphere 6 and Log. Assign a License Key to an ESXi Host You can assign a license key to an ESXi from the Licensing page in the vSphere Client. If the vSphere Client is connected directly to the host, on the host Configuration tab click Licensed Features Edit to change the license key.
vSphere 6.7 has been released and as known from previous versions, VMware provides a free version of their Hypervisor ESXi for everyone again. The license key can be created for free at VMware's website. It has no expiration date. The binaries you will receive as 'Free Hypervisor' are 100% identical to the paid version but with some software limitations.
