Just a quick post about the vSphere Web Client keyboard shortcuts available in the vSphere Web Client 6. It’s a useful feature that I use a lot when I work with multiple vCenter Servers and I need to switch quickly between the items in the vCenter Server Inventory.

vSphere Web Client Keyboard Shortcuts

• Ctrl+Alt+S – Navigates to the Search field control
• Ctrl+Alt+H – Displays global help
• Ctrl+Alt+Shift+H – Displays context-sensitive help
• Ctrl+Alt+1 – Navigates to the vSphere Web Client home
• Ctrl+Alt+2 – Navigates to the vCenter inventory
• Ctrl+Alt+3 – Navigates to the Hosts and Clusters tree in the vCenter inventory
• Ctrl+Alt+4 – Navigates to the VMs and Templates tree in the vCenter inventory
• Ctrl+Alt+5 – Navigates to the Storage tree in the vCenter inventory
• Ctrl+Alt+6 – Navigates to the Networking tree in the vCenter inventory

Note: On Mac OS you can of course use the Command key for the Control key in Windows 🙂
