Restart management agents in ESXi through SSH

  1. Go to the ESXi console and press alt+F1
  2. Type: unsupported
  3. Enter the root password(No prompt, typing is blindly)
  4. At the prompt type “vi /etc/inetd.conf”
  5. Look for the line that starts with “#ssh” (you can search with pressing “/”)
  6. Remove the “#” (press the “x” if the cursor is on the character)
  7. Save “/etc/inetd.conf” by typing “:wq!”
  8. Restart the management service “/sbin/services.sh restart”
