通过远程管理更改ESXi主机root用户密码
2013-03-20 14:34:06 来源:WEB开发网6. 回到那个奇怪的问题,为什么ESXi的密码都改了,ESXi主机还是连接中,其实vCenter是通过vpxuser对ESXi主机进行管理的,这个当你用vSphere client连接ESXi主机时,在本地用户和组中可以看到。
在VMware的pubs中这样结束到
vCenter Server用vpxuser来管理主机,vpxuser在ESXi主机加入vCenter Server时被创建
vCenter Server有平台的管理员权限。。。。
The vpxuser permission is used for vCenter Server when managing activities for the host. The vpxuser is created when an ESXi host is attached to vCenter Server.
vCenter Server has Administrator privileges on the host that it manages. For example, vCenter Server can move virtual machines to and from hosts and perform configuration changes needed to support virtual machines.
The vCenter Server administrator can perform most of the same tasks on the host as the root user and also schedule tasks, work with templates, and so forth. However, the vCenter Server administrator cannot directly create, delete, or edit users and groups for ESXi hosts. These tasks can only be performed by a user with Administrator permissions directly on each ESXi host.
这样就可以解释上面的问题
7. 细心的朋友会发现,图中还有个root用户,也就是ESXi的root用户,右键编辑
8. 更改密码
9. 确认后,当任务栏的任务完成,验证发现ESXi的密码也同样更改了。如果通过vCenter更改ESXi的密码,个人觉得认证肯定无问题,如果是通过vSphere Client连接ESXi主机更改密码,还真不确定它们的信任关系。
10. 现在的做法只有将群集中部分主机更改root密码,并清除了性能的数据等,防止某一天出现提示。
