VMware vSphere Essentials Kit physical licensing?
Hello, I purchased VMware vSphere Essentials Kit for 3
hosts (Max 2 processors per host) +
Subscription for 3 Years
What does VMware mean by a "host"?
How many physical ESXI boxes can I create to run my VMs?
Thank you

This license cannot be upgraded, it's almost a basic starter kit, introduction to VMware vSphere, also with limited features.
ASKER
So with what I bought I am covered to have two ESXI physical servers with 4 VMs each?
Each Physical Server is:
Dell PowerEdge R730XD
TWO Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 2.4GHz,20M Cache,8.00GT/s QPI,Turbo,HT,8C/16T (85W) Max Mem 1866MHz (338-BFFU)
96GB of memory
Just triple checking before I proceed with setting up.
