Based on [WayBack] Command-Tab Not working….. – Apple Community
If you go to Activity monitor and search for dock, doubleclick on it, choose Force quit.
It will restart the Dock app and now it should work.
I wrote this alias which restarts Dock (including Dashboard and Spaces as they are served by the same process).
alias restart-dock-dashboard-spaces='killall -KILL Dock'

Derived the bits below from [WayBack] How to Copy files between ESXi hosts using SCP Command.
Recursive copy from a remote machine to an existing local directory:
scp -rp root@192.168.71.97://vmfs/volumes/EVO860_500GB/VM1/ /vmfs/volumes/EVO860_250GB/VM2/
After this you need to edit the .vmxf files in the VM2 directory to ensure these are not duplicates.
One thing to remember is that you need the current host to allow the SSH client in the firewall, which is disabled by default:
After enabling:
Be really careful with the -3 option to scp; it allows you to transfer from one remote machine to another remote machine, but when using keyboard-interactive, you have a high change to lock-out your accounts: SSH will try to keyboard-interactive to both hosts at the same time.
If you lock-out root, then you have to go through the local DCUI console (use ALT-F2 to go there), then reset the root account failure count using pam_tally2 --user root --reset.
So this can be bad:
scp -3 -rp root@192.168.71.97://vmfs/volumes/EVO860_500GB/VM1/ root@192.168.71.91://vmfs/volumes/EVO860_250GB/VM2/
This works, but assumes the SSH client is enabled from the first host:
scp -rp root@192.168.71.97://vmfs/volumes/EVO860_500GB/VM1/ root@192.168.71.91://vmfs/volumes/EVO860_250GB/VM2/
See these links:
scp -3:
-3 Copies between two remote hosts are transferred through the
local host. Without this option the data is copied directly
between the two remote hosts. Note that this option disables
the progress meter.
The source and target can be specified as a URI in the form scp://[user@]host[:port][/path]
so you can run:
scp -3 scp://user@10.3.0.1:22/path/to/file scp://user@10.3.0.2:6969/pa
After you enable the ESXi Shell in the direct console, you can use these below combination of ALT + Function keys to access the Direct Console User Interface (DCUI) of an ESXi host:
- ALT+F1 = Switches to the console.
- ALT+F2 = Switches to the DCUI.
- ALT+F11 = Returns to the banner screen.
- ALT+F12 = Displays the VMkernel log on the console.
