I have a server with vmware esxi 5.5 installed. Basically, I've noticed when I use Vsphere client and logged in as root and another person uses Vsphere client and logged in as root on the same esx host, the person can see what I'm doing. Is there a way to setup private sessions? I'd like to be able to work on my vm's and another person working on his vm as well without us looking at each others vm setup. Highly appreciate any advice. Thank you.
Answer
if the user wants to look into the vm I am using, I can see on top of the screen that there are two active users on the vm. I was hoping there would be some way to have individual private console sessions for each user logging into esx via vsphere client
There's an advanced option that might help you but it's per VM: Prevent Users from Spying on Remote Console Sessions
I don't know any other way.
Btw: You're talking about two persons logged in as root. In that case you don't have two active users, you have one user (root) with two sessions. However, with RemoteDisplay.maxConnections=1 you can limit the number of console sessions to one; another root session can't open one because then there would be two console sessions.
