Not clear about Vmware and windows servers license
I have license keys of one vcenter server 6 essentials for vsphere and VMware Vsphere 6 essentials plus for 6 processors . Existing two clustered VM Esx physical hosts (Esx A & Esx B), each physical with 2 processors, total 16 cores. How to count windows licensed needed to add a new guest windows 2019\2016 server on one host (Esx A)? Besides, should I need to purchase additional windows & vmware license if I add one more Esx host (Esx C) to the Vmware cluster?

VMware
VMware, a software company founded in 1998, was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies. VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture. Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
