-*VM Host Management Options*
+**VM Host Management Options**
 
  The VCL management node must be able to control the VM host and the VMs running on it.  VMware provides several different ways of doing this.  VCL currently supports the following methods for remote VM host management:
 
-    * VMware vSphere SDK
-    * Use SSH to execute commands directly on the VM (not officially supported by VMware)
+  - VMware vSphere SDK
+  - Use SSH to execute commands directly on the VM (not officially supported by VMware)
 
 The vSphere SDK can only be used if management is not restricted due to the VMware license key installed on the host.  This mainly affects hosts running the free version of ESXi.  Remote management using any of the methods supported by VMware is restricted once a free license key is entered.
 
 If remote management is restricted, the VM host can be managed if SSH is enabled on it.  VCL will execute vim-cmd and other commands on the VM host via SSH.
