  • To Enable TLS 1.2 only to all ESXI hosts under a cluster:

       ./reconfigureEsx vCenterCluster -c <Cluster_Name> -u <Administrative_User> -p TLSv1.2

        :Vcenter server user name for ex:administrator@vsphere.local

  • To Enable TLS 1.1,1.2 only to a specific host under the vCenter server:

    ./reconfigureEsx vCenterCluster -h <ESXI_host_Name> -u <Administrative_User> -p TLSv1.1                 TLSv1.2

     :Vcenter server user name for ex:administrator@vsphere.local
