The vSphere Essentials license is limited to 3 servers of 2 sockets w/ 6core CPU's each. I have two sites right now running on licensed editions. The ESX/ESXi host is limited to a maximum of 32 logical (sockets x cores x hyperthreading) CPUs. The free license only allows access through the vSphere client and all other features such as vMotion/vStorage/HA are disabled. Otherwise the host's hardware limits are the same. -- Drew "Nothing in life is to be feared.
