Viewing the License for free Hypervisor (ESXi 6.x & 7.x): - Log in to Customer Connect. To assign licenses to the vCenter Server or the ESXi host: Log in to the vSphere Client. I've been using his local cron-based backup script to facilitate weekly backups of my VMs and ESXi configuration to my NAS for well over a year now. If you really had previously downloaded the free version of ESXi 6.7 here are the steps for you to recover it. He does provide excellent scripts and insight though. Or if those updates were even forthcoming from vmware for their free license.Īlong those same lines, William Lam's appliances are all nested, which isn't applicable to what I'm talking about here. That's why I was asking if I needed to obtain an updated "free" license (different from trial) to access further 6.5 updates. I expected them to release an "Update 1" for my free license, but all they have is 6.5.0a. Typically I don't upgrade until at least "Update 1" is released. My license is free, with no time-limit, but also no vCenter. So a 60-day trial isn't going to work for me. I've been upgrading it since and am now running 6.0u2 on that same hardware. The box I built started out as 4.1 back in 2011. I'm an enthusiast running a free version of ESXi to house various VMs that are up 24x7 to provide services for my home network and locally hosted apps.
