I am going to update Solarwinds to 2020.2.6 and I have a question about the Guest account. Does it get completely removed when updating to 2020.2.6? When it is completely removed all users will need a login to get into Solarwinds the Guest account access is completely removed? Thanks - Dave
We are monitoring an ESX Host that has unmanaged guests that are shutdown.

I had submitted a ticket to support and they had said this isn't possible but I got it figured out and wanted to pass it along. We run a central digital signage in our IT dept that displays ipMonitor dashboard. On reboots I wanted it to auto start the page and login. Since the addition of the guest account and button in…
When someone is rebooting the VM guest from the vcenter is there a way to send a message with the name of a technician that did it? I could not find this option in vCenter. Log forwarder will send a message with "behalf of user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM for the following reason: Legacy API shutdown" Any other way I can provide…
