Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Version 7.4 User's Guide

Creating Server Administrator Users For VMware ESX 4.X, ESXi 4.X, And ESXi 5.X

To add a user to the Users table:

Log in to the host using the vSphere Client.
Click the Users & Groups tab and click Users .
Right-click anywhere in the Users table and click Add to open the Add New User dialog box.
Enter login, user name, a numeric user ID (UID), and password; specifying that the user name and UID are optional. If you do not specify the UID, the vSphere Client assigns the next available UID.
To allow a user to access the ESX/ESXi host through a command shell, select Grant shell access to this user. Users that access the host only through the vSphere Client do not need shell access.
To add the user to a group, select the group name from the Group drop-down menu and click Add .
