ESXi Account Lockout Behavior

Starting with vSphere 6.0, account locking is supported for access through SSH and through the vSphere Web Services SDK. The Direct Console Interface (DCUI) and the ESXi Shell do not support account lockout.
By default, a maximum of ten failed attempts is allowed before the account is locked. The account is unlocked after two minutes by default.
