This Post is purely to easy of vSphere Admins who want to download the VMware vSphere Client. I have athered the Download link of all versions of vSphere Client starting from vSphere Client v4.1 Update 1 to the latest release vSphere Client 6.0 Update 3. The VMware vSphere Management Assistant (vMA) is a prepackaged Linux virtual machine in which administrators can deploy scripts and select third-party agents to manage ESX and ESXi systems. Software included in vMA includes vSphere CLI and an authentication component that supports non-interactive login. VMware vSphere Hypervisor is a free bare-metal hypervisor that virtualizes servers, so you can consolidate your applications on less hardware. Check out the official VMware vSphere blog for technical tips, best practices, answers to frequently asked questions and links to helpful resources.

vCenter/ESXi 5.5 to 6.0 license question
Stupid question here. We've been running ESXi 5.5 for a long time and then recently got some new hosts that were licensed for 6.0 but had to downgrade the license to 5.5. Now, we are going to be ordering some new hosts that will be licensed for 6.0 but we want to stick with 6.0 going forward. I know we have to upgrade our vCenter server to 6.0 first in order to place the new hosts in vCenter, but since all of our hosts and vCenter is licensed for 5.5 do we need to upgrade our license to 6.0 (and is there a cost for that?) first before we upgrade vCenter? Also, is this the right path to upgrade to 6.0:
-Upgrade VCSA
-Upgrade vCenter Update Manager
-Upgrade ESXi Hosts
