Hello There

Is everyone know how to add user (instead of root ) in advanced setting to have DCUI access in VMware ESXi5.1 using power cli?

In Addition I read the Article below  and it doesn't work.

Thanks

Could you provide some more details about your "it doesn't work" ?

What error message do you get ?

Actually I use this Script

"New-VMHostAccount -ID MyUser1 -Password MyPassword1 -UserAccount -Server MyESX1

$dcui = Get-VMHostAdvancedConfiguration | where {$_.Name -eq "DCUI.Access"}

Set-VMHostAdvancedConfiguration -AdvancedSetting $dcui -Value "$($dcui.Value),MyUser1""

and put it on my power cli command line

in addition  I Change "MyESX1" and "MyUser1" to my own user. Then "MyUser1" have been created  but I see this error(the photo attached) and "MyUser1" was not add to advanced setting dcui .

You are mixing the Set-VMHostAdvancedSetting and the Set-AdvancedSetting cmdlets and parameters.

Use the Set-AdvancedSetting cmdlet, the other one is deprecated.

Something like this
