What permissions are necessary to deploy from EGGS/OVF

Our environment is vCenter 4.1 ESXi 4.1 U1 and U1. We have a lab multitenant environment where users are isolated with Pools of distinct and separate VMS, storage and network resources. Users are all these directors.

They want to be able to deploy templates of the OVA/OVF, but they get this error (attached image) at this stage. I would like to know the minimum permissions required to allow this, without exposing other resources of tenants.

I tried to recreate the environment in my lab. I assigned a test user within a pool of resources, network, file VM folder and folder on drive 'administrator' privledges. I then imported the OVF for CapacityIQ without any problem.

To troubleshoot further, I deleted the access to the list of resources and could choose is no longer a host. I then restored that and removed access to the network folder and got an error saying that I had no right to a network to assign the FVO to.

  • What permissions are required to download a VM from vCenter with 11 workstation

    Greetings,

    Currently, I'm using VMware Workstation 11 to connect to vCenter server. I do not administer VMware infrastructure but need to download VMs in vCenter Server on my local computer by using the workstation. However, when I try to do that, I get the error message "vim.fault.NoPermission." I have permission "Virtual virtual machine download Machine.Provisioning.Allow", but this doesn't seem to be enough. What are the additional permissions do I need to achieve this.

    Also as a separate issue. What permissions are needed to download a VM on vCenter. We do not need this feature initially, but it would be nice to know if we want to implement in the future.

    I appreciate all help you provide.

    So after enough effort, I solved my problem. One of the things I noticed is that whenever I tried to do a download from the workstation, I noticed a newspaper get created called OVFTool.log. That's what tipped me off to this particular process using the OVFTool to run and complete the operation. This data, I started researching the permissions needed to perform operations using the OVFTool. I came across this article from VMware:

    Near the top of this document, he asserts that the privilege required to export a model from the FVO is vApp.Export. I thought "Hey it's worth it." So this was the authorization that has worked. We also paired up back all other permissions and determined that this is the only permission to download a virtual machine of vCenter.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones looking reboot / battery pull App for BES / what permissions are needed?

    I tried to use again Me in my 9900, but is not compatible with BES. Not all the permissions the application, but it does not work. It just hangs. I asked the seller the necessary permissions, and they seem to be completely put out on this issue. They simply said of all the permissions must be enabled. On the right, as the computer SCIENCE Department will go for this.

    I don't mind paying for an app if it works and if I can get a clear indication of what permissions requires.

    If you use a reboot / battery traction app with BES, which do you use, and what is the permissions it requires?

    I just found out that ALT BACKSPACE of RIGHT SHIFT causes a reboot. Now, I have no need of a battery pull application.

  • What permissions are good for?

    Hello

    in the Orchestrator, there is a sections with permissions, where you can create permissions a card/linking objects in the inventory.

    What are these authorizations good for?

    Is there a documentation about it (found nothing in the guides...)?

    see you soon,

    Joerg

    Hi Joerg,

    Permissions are a legacy feature that predate the acquisition of VMware Orchestrator. When prioritizing the work of documentation required for the vCO 4.0, permissions and policies slipped to the bottom of the list, because these features duplicate functionality that vCenter provides.

    We do not recommend that you use vCO permissions or policies.

    Kind regards

  • What permissions are required for access to VMware Workstation?

    I need to provide access to a few virtual machines in our environment vSphere for a user through VMware Workstation 9.0.2 but questions.

    There are 3 virtual machines in a folder under models and virtual computers that this user needs access base (start, stop, console). I first tried assigning the role of user (sample) of the virtual machine to the user on the folder that contains these VMs (with spread), but trying to access one of them workstation as long as this user, I get the error was refused permission to perform this operation. I even tried to assign the role of administrator for this user on this issue and received the same error.

    Then, I assigned the user (sample) of the virtual machine and then later the role of the administrator directly to the virtual machines, but when you try to connect through my computer I get this error with or the other role (I have attached the log file, it refers):

    VMware error 1.PNG

    After clicking on OK, workstation breaks down, and then I get this error:

    VMware error 2.PNG

    The only way I could successfully get this user access is by adding the user to the local Administrators group vCenter Server, but after doing this, the user has full access to all virtual machines. I should also mention that Im able to access the virtual machine with the basic functions assigned via vSphere client to web without problem with permissions above affected as this user.

    Does anyone know what is required to provide access by workstation I'm looking for?

    Thank you!

    Figured it out!

    First, for each virtual machine that you want to grant access, to add the user/group with the assigned role, you want to give them. An additional step required for access to the workstation is, for each host you granted access to the virtual machines are on, you must also add the user/group and assign the read-only role, making sure to uncheck propagate to child objects.

    So it's similar to the thread above, but avoids having to explicitly revoke access to each another VM on the host. So now, when I log in as a user with that I was testing, I can connect to vCenter via my computer, only to see the VMs Ive applied custom roles to and, especially, can connect to them without problem!

    Also, it seems that even if work stations invite you to assign read-only permissions to the host is not actually do something.

    Thanks a bunch for all the help everyone... especially ShadyMalatawey. If I would not have seen this prompt in my computer to apply the permission he would have had much more time to understand.

  • What measures are necessary for UNTAG vlan by default to port gigabit on SRW208P

    We have 1 VLAN disabled on our standard Cisco Catalyst switches and use our default VLAN 11.  We have recently added some 221 VLAN for voice while implementing a new Cisco UC system.  I can't disable VLAN1, however, I made the default VLAN 11 and 221 VLAN voice.  In management of VLANS, I can UNTAG 11 (VLAN PVID) on all ports but the connection to the Cisco 6506/port Gigabit.  The port still tags VLAN 11 and 221 and removes the brand VLAN (PVID) 1.

    I tried to make changes to the switch when you are connected to the switch and when I do the setting, the switch loses the connection to the 6506.  If I make the appropriate changes to GI (1) when you are connected to GI (2), the change takes effect, however, when I move the connection to GI (1) cable, the port and VLAN 11 configuration changes becomes identified and VLAN1 becomes marked.

    What is needed to prevent this?

    Hello Mike,.

    The roles of smartport negotiated links and seem to have resolved to manually set the port configurations.

    In addition, SX300 series does not support the SPAN distance, therfore silent monitoring does not work between the UCCX and phones when you plug into the switch (s).

    My computer with two hard drives and 2 starting systems has the car crash in the solid state. When I got the new drive and tried to restore from time capsule, I lost some data. How can I see what backups are on the time capsule? My laptop is also saved to the time capsule. Everything is in 'Data' when I look through the Airport utility. I think that the information that I've lost are still there since I was a Capsule 3 to.

    Time Machine backup to a sparsebundle.

    The sparsebundle will use the share name of computer. So, it should be obvious who is your Macbook and that is your Macpro.

    Open the sparsebundle in Finder and keep open the subfolders until you get to the backup of each separate hard drive...

    You has of course set the exclusion in Time Machine?

    By default, Time Machine will exclude your second drive unless you have included it. Did you?

    Once you get to this level during the backup, you can do a full restore manually whenever you want.

    How to find what processes are running on my computer and use it from memory?

    You can press Ctrl-Shift-Escape to see which processes are underway and those who is using memory (and how much they use).  Although the memory usage is not as important as how they use lots of CPU, which is what can make your computer slow if there are too many programs use the CPU at the same time.  For memory, even if she says that he uses a lot, an inactive program ' pages on "memory to the hard disk and it frees room for other programs to use, is not as important as the CPU generally (unless you are very very low on memory).
