Remove Specific AD account permission from ESXi host- Help required

[thiag2011]

Hi all,

I would like to remove a specific AD account from ESXi host.

I tried using the command remove-vipermission using the syntax

remove-vipermission -permission domain\accountname -Confirm:$false

example: remove-vipermission -permission abc\user1 -Confirm:$false

          abc- domain

          user1 - domain user

But I get errors..

Can someone help me with the exact statement to delete this using powercli...

can you try this

$permission = Get-VIPermission -Principal abc\user1

Remove-VIPermission -Permission $permission -Confirm:$false
