VMWare and the CLI
If you want to access your VMWare hosts from the CLI, you are not allowed to login directly as the root account from SSH. You need to create a local user that has shell access and then SSH with that account before you do a su - to access the root account.
You must create this account by logging in via the VSphere client to the ESX hosts directly and not through VCenter first.
If you are on windows, I would recommend PuTTY for a SSH client and if you are on a Mac, well, just use your terminal application.
