Got VMware Licensing Questions?
Ever since vSphere 4 came out we've had a surge in questions about the new licensing model. Did you know our Knowledge Base covers licensing as well as hard-core technical topics?
We tend to think of the Knowledge Base as a problem & fix resource, but we want to get the word out that it also works as a general Q&A or FAQ resource.
Based on the kind of questions and issues that have come up we've compiled this list of the top Knowledge Base articles for Licensing.
