Hello,          I installed UM 4.4 with offline option. I have a few questions: 1) When I configured the vCenter connection after "Credentials validated" shows ok: But when I configured NSX-V (I think that is the new option for "NSX Manager" in 3.6.1) The credentials was validated but not shows Ok.     It's normal this? because after a 2-3 hours I didn't see information on Usage tab:       The are not usage's data to download.   It's okay?   2) Is a way that I can use a service user instead an admin user (NSX admin user), if exists, How can I give the correct permissions.

I have the following scenario: We Installed  Usage Meter 3.6 (we dont register on VCC portal for NOT use automatic reports.), Now, the option for offline reports is available in the new version but when I try to configure always ask me to register on VCC portal. My question is: Is there a way to migrate to the new version without registering with VMware Portal? or, How I migrate the Usage Meter and do not use automatic reports?. Greetings, Tomás

Because the operating system information is pulled from the virtual machine configuration in vMware, but I need this information to be obtained through vmtools.
