Add a new Admin user to VLA

The first step is to log into the VLA Appliance via the console. Since SSH is disabled by default, you must use the console. The root login for VLA has been removed. You add a new admin user (non root user with sudo privileges) using the steps mentioned below :

Select the new VLA Appliance object in thevSphere Web Client, switch to the summary tab, and select Launch Remote Console.
A new browser window or tab should open. The VLA console should be available. Login using the console username and password that you provided when you deployed the VLA.
