Add option to not close the undocked console when machine is restarted or shutdown
1 vote
I have such a workflow where I am using undocked consoles for my machines, and I want them in specific order in the windows taskbar/thumbnails.
Currently, when I now restart the machine, the console closes.
I would prefer if the console remained alive, even when the machine is shutdown. And when I start it up (using vSphere for that), that it works.
As it is, if I want specific order of machines (specific functions and tasks are running on each, and I have to juggle all the time, and muscle memory helps), I then have to close all, and open consoles in order again.
If this can work, it could simply be an option.
It is entirely possible this is already one of the options in the advanced tab, but I can't find it..
Hello,
Could you confirm what entry types you're using? We have the "Keep tab page opened on disconnect" available on certain entry types like RDP and VNC, but it's not available widely. I would like for us to be able to support it on more entry types, and knowing which type you're using would let us prioritize this.
From you mentioning vSphere, are you using the VMWare (Player, Workstation, vSphere) entry?

I do have this option turned on, but if I choose either "connect" or "connect when available", the window still closes, then reopens, which causes the order of windows to still change.

Thank you for the details. From what I can tell from your screen capture, you're using Undocked mode with RDP entries. I've tested on my end and I was able to reproduce the behavior you're describing.
I'll open a ticket to see what we can do to improve this. We're already handling the order of the embedded tabs in RDM so the order doesn't change, so it would make sense to also handle the order there.
