    Hi all,

    I want to create a role that only permits users to change the vlan on only one specifik VM. Is it posible to make a rule that is that specifik?

    Kind Regards

    Yes that permits users to change the vlan but on all VM's as it's on Datacenter lvl. I only want them to change on one specifik VM. If i try to add the same role on VM lvl it says "This host does not have any virtual machine networks, or you dont have the permission to access them"

    Hi,


    Make sure you assign the permission to the switch as-well .


    Open: Home – Inventory – Networking and assign the permissions to the Network Label (Port group where the VM resides). After that, assign the role to individual VM were you want this to be applied. .

    Please refer the below link .
