When you are running VMware ESXi in your network and you have a Vcenter server. And you have on the ESXi servers SSH enable.
You get to see a warning message on the server

You get to see in the Summery the following message.
![]()
To get rid of this message you change a setting in the advanced mode of the ESXi server. Go to the Tab Configuration > Advanced Settings.
You have to go to UserVars and change the Variable > UserVars.SuppressShellWarning set the value to 1

After you have done this the status of the ESXi server will change to normal with out a warning.

The solution above you can change via the CLI also.
You have to logon with SSH to the server. Use the following command to Suspress the warning.
”esxcfg-advcfg –s 1 /UserVars/SuppressShellWarning”
