A user inquired about limiting access to ControlUp agentless VMs when giving the service account visibility of storage in VMware - this would bring in 191 agentless VMs and exceed their licensing capabilities. It was clarified that the only way to limit the service account is to do it at the cluster level, granting them the "NO ACCESS" role on the clusters not to be managed.

Limiting the Number of Connections in ControlUp Real Time Console
A new user asked if there was a way to limit the number of connections in the ControlUp Real Time Console that a given user can have to the client machines. The suggestion was to use the Solve console, which the user said might not offer the same 'Incidents view'. However, the Audit Log from the Solve console can show all the triggers that were fired and actions ran, as well as limit the 'Connect to Windows Machine' permission. It was suggested to explain the resource constraints to the help desk team and rely on their own principles of self-control. There is no way to detect if too many connections are open, and the Security Policy is all or nothing.

The duration of the logon might be too short, so increasing it and using baseline images may help resolve the issue. In one instance, the issue was caused by Scoutbees reconnecting to a disconnected session, leading to 12 hour-long failed Scouting, even though the connection was successful.
