License Question

Hi

 

I am a home user on a budget and am looking to understand license options for my small lab. (vRanger 7)

 

I am looking to backup ~20VM's across 2 ESX(Essentials) Hosts - how many licenses would I need to cover this?

 

If I go for the 1YR license with 24/7 support, will the license still function after the one year (I appreciate I will lose update and support privileges)

 

Advice much appreciated!

 

Many Thanks

  • vRanger is licensed by socket, so if you 2 machines with 2 processors you need 4 licenses.
    Veeam has a free version with limited functionality but might be adequate for homelab use, there is also the built in VDP solution that shold be included with your vsphere licenses until it gets yanked (vmware announced they were depreciating it), I don't really like it much though. It has broken every time I have ever updated it.
