Hi,

Open a vsphere client directly on your ESXi and create a local user.

Then add the user on the administrator group.

Then you will be able to use ssh with this user.

yes working

but I wrote the question incorrectly forgetting a part of question

if insert test1 on administrator this accoun use ssh and have full controll.

I have to limit his powers of test1:   shutdown - reboot - mantaince mode

now repeate this sequence with web client connect to vcenter for change permission to test1
