Can someone from VMware confirm core limits for the essentials license. I have an ongoing support contract so continue to upgrade my essentials license. Currently I'm at 6.5. I plan to start purchasing replacement hardware. My previous V4 license says "VMware vSphere 4 Essentials PROMO Bundle for 3 hosts (Max 2 processors per host and 6 cores per processor)". Am I still limited to 6 cores per processor with my 6.5 essentials subscription? Googling shows some sites (non-vmware) that says the core limit has been removed. I'm looking at a 12-core CPU system, so obviously I need to know this.
Thank you,
