Multiple character repeat through vSphere Client console

This article was written by Duncan Epping over at Yellow-Bricks.com. I have posted here purely for my own ability to find this setting in the future. I needed it today while building vShield Manager VM across a WAN Link. Every time I tried to type the username admin it entered it as aaadddmmmiiinnn obviously very frustrating. This is how you fix it.

• Power off the VM
• Edit Settings
• Click the Options Tab
• Click “General”
• Click “Configuration Parameters”
• Click “Add Row”
• Enter the name: keyboard.typematicMinDelay
• Enter the value: 2000000
