Hi Tony:

I think you need to look at powercli for ESXi Configuration:

Hi

Am I not allowed to have multiple modules in same yml file?

vmware_host_active_directory does not have a parameter called ‘ad_username’ its actually ‘ad_user’

[Tony_Wong]

Thanks

I corrected it and now it looks like its trying to ssh into the host as my username which does not exist on the esxi host. How do I impersonate ssh into the host as root?
