Troubleshooting and tips

Roles

  • The default CLOUD_ADMIN role has all privileges and is locked

  • You can only access roles with the same privileges or fewer privileges than your own role

  • You cannot modify your own role.

Privileges

  • You can only select or deselect privileges that are in your own role

  • Privileges are generally independent.

    "

    Access Infrastructure view

    "

     privilege,

    the Infrastructure icon

    the Infrastructure button does not display in the

    UI

    main menu.

    "

    Manage datacenters

    "

     and

    "

    View datacenter details

    "

    , the user will be able to access these functions through the API.
