VMWare 5.5 license

Hi All,

I have an old  Dell Poweredge R210 II server and I found a VMWare 5.5 ISO. I dowanloded and installed it on this server, but it sais it's a 60 days evaluation version. Is there some free license for it. As I know it isn't supported any more, but can I use it free somehow?

Thanks in advance!

The "free" ESXi is called "vSphere Hypervisor" and you need a free license for it. Try https://customerconnect.vmware.com/en/web/vmware/evalcenter?p=free-esxi5

but iam not sure if its working. Because if standard Intel, Broadcom and LSI you should try esxi 6.0 or 6.5 on the hardware.

Joerg
