Instead of just opening SSH and disregarding or ignoring the warning this creates, Arne created a PowerCLI script to enable/disable SSH on need.<br /> <br /> The script configures SSH to start automatically, it hides the Shell warning message and will then configure the ESXi firewall to allow the connection from a certain IP address. <br /> <br /> ==== Usage ====<br /> Change the $cluster and $ip variables to accomodate your environment.<br /> Then copy the script to your PowerCLI session and run it.<br /> <br /> $cluster = &quot;&lt;clusterName&gt;&quot;<br /> $ip = &quot;192.168.1.1&quot;<br /> ==== Location ====<br /> <br /> http://ict-freak.nl/2013/05/02/powercli-enable-ssh-and-configure-esxi-firewall/<br /> <br /> [[Category: Perl]] [[Category: Host Management]]</div>
