Unless you used something like esxranger to backup the vmware server instances
to a physical machine then used the existing license to backup the images.
Esxranger is licensed per cpu of the esx box. If it has 4 cpus you would need
to license 4 to backup that esx box.

I don't have a link at the moment, nor the time to search for it, but I'll back
up what Ed says.
For a Vmware physical server, you need one client license per OS.
F'rinstance, a box running ESX, with Windows and Linux virtual servers on it,
would require 1 windows and 1 linux license.
