[one-users] RestrictedVersion Error (OpenNebula and VMWare ESXi 4.1 free license)

[Matthias Keller]

Hi Luigi,

> I'm posting this just to inform the community that the VMWare ESXi hypervisor 4.1 with the free license cannot work with OpenNebula 2.0.1 (and VMWare Driver 1.0).
as we (our institute) had developed the libvirt-esx-drivers, I run in the same issue, while I extend Eucalyptus for ESX usage.

The "RestrictedVersion Fault" occurs after ESXi switches to free mode from evaluation mode. Then some parts of the vSphere API e.g. RegisterVM_Task or PowerOnVM_Task doesn't work anymore. I was forced either to reinstall the ESXi servers every month or to get the proper license. 

Regards,
Matthias
