You are thinking of ESXi. Here is the difference between the twovirtualization platforms...

...and with update3, the Remote CLI is not limited to read only access anymore. The access to the API has changed and now you can also do Quick Migration and many other things that were'nt possible on ESXi until now.

This unlimited API access is however a bug, so don't count on it still being there in the next update of ESXi.
