Script to modify files inside the ESXi OS

[netjim66]

Not sure how to modify files inside the ESXi OS using powercli.

Or do you use somethng else.

I know about configuring ESXI stuff in vCenter...

I need to get into the linux OS of the ESXi, and can it be done with PowerCLI?

Thanks!

What kind of files do you want to modify inside ESXi?

Due to the special way ESXi works not all of the filesystem is preserved between reboots.
