Explanation
Option B is correct because HPE OneView for VMware vCenter Server is licensed per HPE Synergy frame, meaning one license covers all compute modules within that frame regardless of how many blades are installed - this simplifies cost prediction and makes the product economically attractive for dense deployments.
Option A is wrong because having HPE OneView Global Dashboard deployed is a separate product entirely and does not grant or substitute for HPE OneView for vCenter Server licenses. Option C is wrong because licensing is not based on the count of installed Compute Modules - the frame is the licensing unit, so adding more modules to a frame does not require additional licenses. Option D is wrong because being managed by HPE OneView is a prerequisite, not a license grant - a dedicated HPE OneView for vCenter Server license is still required separately.
Memory tip: Think "one frame, one license" - HPE Synergy's composable architecture groups resources by frame, and licensing follows that same logical boundary.
