VIX License, vCenter and vmrun.exe

$

Hi, I saw a previous thread about VIX license issues at http://communities.vmware.com/message/1681440#1681440, but it didn't directly address a couple of questions that I have.

 

1. Do all vCenter 4.0 and 4.1 licenses include VIX? That is, if a vCenter server is running 4.0 or 4.1, can I assume that a VIX client will be able to attach to it without any licensing problem?

 

2. Is the vmrun.exe portion of VIX redistributable? It's not listed among the redistributable components of the VIX SDK in the VIX API Reference at http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vix-api/vix110_reference/.

 

3. If vmrun.exe is redistributable, can it be installed and used by itself, or does it require the presence of other components of the SDK? My initial impression, from looking at vmrun.exe in the Dependency Walker, is that vmrun.exe does not require any of the various dlls that are included in the SDK.

 

Thanks for your assistance!

 

Joseph
