The discovery log shows the MID server using its own Windows Service account for running PowerShell commands (when all other credentials have failed).
The SN Docs say, you can prevent this by setting MID Server mid.powershell.local_mid_service_credential_fallback to false.
But in my Paris instances, I seem to be unable to select that particular parameter:
I managed to add it via a workaround (by creating a different param and manipulating the param name through the list view). But it did not make a difference.
I have also tried adding it as a MID Server Property but that made no difference either. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

It is not that I do not have any credentials. It is that I may not have enough to handle each Windows machine. In case I don't, I don't want the MID Server to try with local service account. for this I need to set the MID Server param.
My problem is: I cannot set the MID Server param as specified. Were you able to do so?

Thanks for that. Not sure that this is describing my issue. My issue is that I cannot set the param as needed, while even this KB article refers to setting is to true or false.
