An administrator is tasked with adding a 96-core VMware ESX host to a VMware vSphere...

The new ESX host will operate in evaluation mode until more capacity is added to the license to license the host. If the host is not licensed when the evaluation period expires, the host will be limited to 64 cores until 32 cores or greater is added to the license.

The new ESX host has been limited to 64 cores until more capacity is added to the license to license the host. Once 32 cores or greater is added to the license, the full 96 cores of the new host will be useable.

The new ESX host will operate in evaluation mode until more capacity is added to the license to license the host. If the host is not licensed when the evaluation period expires, it is disconnected from the vCenter instance.

No issue will occur. The new host was added to the vCenter cluster successfully and will operate for the valid period of the applied license.
