Description

posixId | xsd:int |
Deprecated.
As of vSphere API 5.1, this property is deprecated and
is ignored.
The user ID or group ID of a specified account.
|
shellAccess | xsd:boolean |
Grants shell access.
As of vSphere API 5.1, this property is deprecated and
is ignored. CreateUser will always set this to true, and
UpdateUser will set it to true if it is already false.
Also shell access is granted only to users with
Administrator role on the root folder and no other non-Admin role on
any other inventory object.
As of vSphere API 7.0.3.2, this property is no longer ignored and it must
be true if a user with administrator permissions needs shell access.
It can be set to true for other users only by administrators
who themselves have this shell access.
Administrators without shell access cannot change the passwords of
users with shell access.
Setting this property to false for user 'root' has no effect.
If this property is not specified when creating a new user account
then the default value depends on the following factors:
if the calling user does not have shell access then it defaults to
false; if the calling user has shell access then it defaults to false,
unless overridden by host configuration settings.
