This post is for the
administrators who are more familiar with managing ESX hosts and new to
ESXi hosts. There are many environment with lot of ESX hosts and ESXi
hosts are introduced to the environment after the vSphere 5. only ESXi
will be available post vSphere 5 and ESX is discontinued. So there are
many administrators who are new to ESXi management. When you tried to
connect to your ESXi host directly via vSphere client as like connecting
to ESX server. You may face the error message ” The vSphere client
could not connect to “x.x.x.x”. You don’t have permission to login to
the server”
Original Post:
Don’t be
panic and don’t try to restart your management services as all
administrators do when they are not able to connect to the host via
vSphere client.This above error is because of the “ESXi Lockdown Mode is Enabled” in your ESXi host.
When ESXi Lockdown mode is
enabled, it will not allow any other user other than vpxuser have
authentication permission and no other users can perform operations
against the host directly. Lockdown Mode forces all operations on the
host to be performed through vCenter server. Root user account can be
used to login to DCUI when ESXi lockdown mode is enabled.
I believe this is informative for you. Be social and share the posts in social media !!!! Thanks.Original Post:
