Hello
We got 3 host ESXi 4.1 cluster but the version doesn't matter, because we want to upgrade it in nearly future. The thing is that we also want to expand our infrastructure, lets say with 2 new hosts. The present cluster is licensed with Essential plus kit with one instance of vCenter essential. If we buy license for vCenter server standard and standard license for that 2 new host will i be able to manage it in one vCenter Standard ? ( essential plus kit 3 host + vSphere standard 2 host - by vCenter standard )
I dive carefully through all licensing documentation and white pappers , so i know that essential kits doesn't allow u to exceed 3 host limit , but if i will buy license for vCenter standard will i be able to manage both cluster throug it or i need to re license old essential kit cluster to ?
I hope its celar enough 
Wojtek
