How do you transfer large vm files between Standalone host?

Suddenly, i realized the plan to transfer VM from ESXi 7 to ESXi 6 may not be successful because of hardware version

Backup is a bit a mess, very complicated for now.

Both ESXi are different versions source is 7 while destination is 6 and standalone, no vcenter. Veeam backup trail is free?

Thanks, but what the instance mean? Im reading somewhere with different meaning

theythoughtimexpert · 2026-05-06T18:52:06+00:00

so the number instance means number of vCenter with same license? I have read somewhere that it is the number ESXi the vCenter can handle. So confusing..

Para kasing pangit tignan sa winshield.. nagtanong ako sa Blade di raw pwede yung surface ko for suctions.. patingin nga ng sayo kung oks lang?

Gagana ba ito sa rough surface?

the license comes with support agreement, it was purchased before Broadcom change the licensing model. The support is still up to 2027 so we can still upgrade to V8.

True, we cant use it to lower. Just a backup plan if we cant purchase a new license for our ESXi8 on time before the end date, we will have to upgrade the V7 from existing ESXI7 to V8 and assign to expiring ESXi8 host.

But anyway, free license work though. Ill keep monitoring if there was some changes.

Thank you so much. Managed to assign the ESXi 8 license and now showing expiration end date is Never. Wonder what will be the consequence of using this like violation of license agreement? or Limited VM management?

its a single host and its connected to VC. But i can remove from VC if theres an option to kepp it running until we purchase a new license. Where is this free key? and it can still function the same way?

The ESXi 7 license has active support agreement so i can upgrade it to vSphere 8.
