Hello,
Long time customer and user of vSphere Essential Plus. I am running 6.7U2. Just upgraded vCenter server to v7.0 and that went very well. I then downloaded the software and licensing for vSphere ESXi 7.0. When I load the license in vCenter it shows that there is now a limit of 32 total cores!!! Why are we going backwards after prior version of Essentials Plus removed the core limit? So now I have an upgrade which I am entitled to under SnS but cannot use because I would exceed the core count, even though I am fine under 6.7.
So while processor core counts are increasing at reasonable costs, VMware has decided to go backwards and limit the core count, even though we already have a physical socket limit already in place? Furthermore, why remove the core count limit in a previous version only to reinstate it now and prevent me from upgrading to a product which I am entitled to with my SnS?
Thank You !
