In this Blog we will be learning Installing the VMWare NSX License.
Why we required VMWare NSX License?
During
the New VMware NSX installation in the existing VMware Setup, we will be unable
to proceed the Host preparation of
the ESXi Servers for the NSX unless we install the NSX License.
Without the NSX license – we can install
NSX Manager and NSX controllers not more than that.
Sometimes we may face an issue while
Installing the VMWare NSX License, that time you can just follow the steps
below which will be easy to install the same.
Access the VMware Web Client of the vCenter
Server
Home – Select Administration
In the Administration – Expand the Licensing and select Licenses – License Tab – Click Add to add the license
Enter the License Key – which you have got
from the VMware Support Team
The License Key will be 5 columns separated
using (-) combination of Alphabets and Numbers
Ex: XXXXX – XXXXX – XXXXX -XXXXX -XXXXX
Provide the Name for the provided license –
used to identify the License Type
Once the License is accepted – IT provides the Capacity and Product Details
Make Sure the License Name is correct and the License Key is correct. And this also shows the Expires and the Capacity of that license.
Click Finish
Now we must Assign the License to the
VMware NSX
In the Same Page – Select the Assets Tab and Solutions
Select the Newly added license and Click OK
