SSH and ESXi Shell startup policy

Hi

How to set SSH and ESXi Shell startup policy to "Start and Stop Manually" for all ESXi hosts in the vCenter?

How to rename the vcenter name in the VI client inventory from whatever the name it is now to something else?

Thanks

Use the Set-VMHostService cmdlet.

See Example 1

Changing the hostname of a vCenter shouldn't be done lightheartedly I'm afraid.

In most cases I think an uninstall/install of vCenter, and all it's services, is a better/safer method
