Verify whether the ESX/vSphere host is licensed
Check the following to verify whether the ESX/vSphere host is licensed:
On ESX(i)/vSphere 4.x or 5.x, navigate to Configuration > Licensed Features and verify whether vStorage APIs are listed.
On ESX(i)/vSphere 7.x, navigate to Configure > System > Licensing > Licensed Features and verify whether Storage APIs are listed.
If the ESX(i)/vSphere host is not licensed for the above options, contact VMware to obtain the vStorage APIs (or VADP) license.
