Disable ‘SSH for the host has been enabled’ message in vSphere 5

I always forget where to turn off the SSH for the host has been enabled warning message so i’m posting it here for safe keeping. 🙂

SSH Warning

To turn this message off click on the host, go to the Configuration tab, then click on Advanced Settings.

Host Configuration - Advanced Settings

Scroll down to the UserVars section. The last field is called UserVars.SupressShellWarning, change the value from a 0 to a 1. The message will now be gone!
