Wow. I think the six people on the planet Earth who didn’t see this coming after the buyout last year will be shocked.

I mean we’ve even got a bingo card so to say of what to expect.

Aw, a corporation upset when another corporation does the kind of shit that corporations tend to do with regular people, thanks to the years and years of corporate lobbying allowing corporations to do whatever the fuck they want.

I almost had a tear.

my previous employer was at work scripting their own workarounds for stuff like DRS and distributed switches so they could drop down to the standard licenses.

Move to open solutions. You buy a Proxmox license and you get it all.

If you don’t like Proxmox you could even implement something yourself as it is all open solutions. Libvirt supports live transfers with little effort.
