Hello,
I found vCenter appliance shell useful especially for monitoring (disk space, ram...). But when I create user (in /etc/passwd has /bin/appliancesh) and connect VCSA via SSH, I got appliance shell with no privileges:

Error connecting to the server
* List APIs: "help api list"
* List Plugins: "help pi list"

* Launch BASH: "shell"
Command> help api list

Command> resources.storage.stats.list
Unknown command: `resources.storage.stats.list'

With root everything works. I do not want any "workaround" like "user as root", better solution seems to be permit exact commands, which user is allowed to run.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you
Jiri
