BE7K licensing

[nadeem1nadeem]

Hello All,

I have received few licenses  as below:

VMW-VSP-STD 1A (1CPU)-  --4

VMW-UC-FND5-K9(2 sockets)-2

VMW-VS5-HYP-K9 (2 sockets)-4.

VMW-VS6-FND-K9 (2 sockets)-1

for 

BE7000-4 No & UCS C220-2 No.

Can anyone please tell me which licences we need to apply on BE7 K?  Hyp or STD

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Nadeem

Making the wildest guess, and without knowing either what you ordered or what capabilities you need, I'd suggest that the STD licences are for the C220s.  Assuming they are dual CPU models then the quantity matches.   For the BE7Ks, the normal option selected as part of the BE7K order is Foundation which currently is VMW-VS6-FND-K9 and is an OEM licence not transferrable to different hardware.   Hypervisor edition VMW-VS5-HYP-K9 is normally only seen as the included licence with BE6K servers, I don't think it can be ordered separately.

How old is the kit?  I'm just wondering if the BE7K used to have Hypervisor Edition as an option in previous versions.  

By the way, the space at the top of this post is because there's a stupid message in red saying "Please do no post any private of sensitive information!" that plasters itself over the top of anything I write on the second line.
