For the required permissions for a vRanger vCenter account, see the Quest vRanger Installation/Upgrade Guide.

NOTE: The user name for the vCenter credential should be entered in the username@domain format, rather than domain\username. Sometimes, the domain might not be required. Avoid special characters in the user name.

If these credentials are changed in the future, you must restart the Quest vRanger Service to recognize the changes.

In the User Password field, enter the password for the preceding account.
5
In the Port Number field, enter the port to use for communication — the default is 443.
6
Click Connect.

The dialog box closes, and the vCenter appears in the VirtualCenters section and on the VirtualCenter and Host Information page. The hosts managed by that vCenter appear in the Hosts section.

4
In the User Password field, enter the password for the preceding account.
5
In the Root Password field, enter the root password for the selected hosts.

If your hosts use different root passwords, configure them in like groups based on the root password.

NOTE: VMware® ESXi™ requires the use of the root account. You cannot use a non-root account with ESXi.
