Running ESXCLI Commands
You can run an ESXCLI command in the
ESXi
Shell for troubleshooting purposes and remotely against a specific
host or against a vCenter Server
system. You can install ESXCLI on one of the supported Windows,
Linux, or macOS systems. Specify connection options to run commands against an
ESXi
host directly, or target a vCenter Server
system and specify the ESXi
host to run the
command against. See Installing ESXCLI. A trust relationship must exist between
the host from which you run ESXCLI commands and the target
ESXi
host or
vCenter Server
system. See Trust Relationship Requirement for ESXCLI Commands.
