Today I will show you quick and easy way to enable and disable SSH and Lockdown mode for all hosts in the cluster.
Let’s start by connecting to vCenter:
Connect-VIServer vcenter_hostname_or_IP
Next let’s grab list of hosts in the cluster and put it to variable
$Lhosts = Get-Cluster -Name AngrySysOps.com | Get-VMHost
Now we will disable SSH
$Lhosts | Get-VMHostService | Where Key -EQ "TSM-SSH" | Stop-VMHostService
To enable SSH change Stop-VMHostService
to Start-VMHostService
Lockdown Mode – disable
foreach ($h in $Lhosts) {
($Lhosts | Get-View).ExitLockdownMode()
}
To enable change ExitLockdownMode
to EnterLockdownMode
