I have not been able to find specs giving max vCPU on an Essential Plus license. I know that Essential supports
1. 3 hosts
2. 2 CPU/host
3. 8 way SMP (8 vCPU) per VM
I have 2 different configuration of ESXi hosts
a. 2 dual core sockets with HT turned on. ESxi hosts reports 2x2x2 = 8 vCPU with HT as being active
b. 2 quad core sockets with HT turned on. ESxi host reports 2x4 = 8 vCPU with HT as being inactive.
Shouldn't "b" give me 16 vCPU? What am I missing?
Thanks
