I had a working ESXi 6.7 set up. The flash drive used to run the ESXi died on me. So I had to reinstall ESXi on a new flash drive. All of that is working well.
The ESXi install tells me that I have 40 odd days left before the license expires. From what I have read, after the expiry, I will not be able to start the VMs or create new VMs. I had registered ESXi 6.5 I think and gotten the license, but that license key is lost, since I do not have it backed up or saved anywhere
So I tried to go to vmware to my account to see if I have the key there. I don't see it in my account anywhere. I tried to get a new key, VMware will only give me new keys to 7.0 and 8.0 . And I tried the key I got for 7.0, but that did not work.
Is there a way to get free license key for 6.7 anymore?
Thanks!
( I am not sure that I can successfully upgrade to 7.0. I have a Dell T20 and I remember reading that the customized image 6.7U3 was the last one that will work with this server and the dell H310 crossflashed card)
