Broadcom, Wednesday, August 19th, 2026
Broadcom ships ESXCLI 9.1.0 with simplified installation, modern Python support and security improvements.
Broadcom announced general availability of ESXCLI 9.1.0. ESXCLI is a fundamental utility in the VMware management toolkit for vSphere administrators and automation engineers, letting them run host management commands remotely against an ESXi host or any host managed by vCenter Server.
It works from a local workstation or administrative jumpbox without requiring an interactive SSH session to the host.
The 9.1.0 release simplifies installation and adds modern Python support. It also includes security enhancements to the tool itself.
