How to remove an orphaned object from permissions

[KKvss]

Hello Community,

we deleted a Cluster and Host from the vCenter and didn´t remove some special permissions from that.

Now, we see an orphaned object in the Administrator --> Roles section and can´t remove it!

When I click on the objects there are no tabs to remove the permission - HTML5 is also not working.

Maybe somebody knows how to remove it?

Greetings

Hey Team,

i found a solution together with my colleague - POWERCLI!!!

Get-VIPermission -Principal "User/Group name" | FL

EntityId      : Datacenter-datacenter-XXXX

Entity        : User/Group name

Role          : Role Name

Principal     : User/Group name

Propagate     : True

IsGroup       : True

There you can see the EntityID / Entity and Principal for the group also the orphand one will show up.

Get-VIPermission -Principal "User/Group name" | Remove-VIPermission

Perform operation?

Removing permission on entity 'Datacenter-datacenter-XXXX' for principal 'User/Group name' and role 'Role Name'

So you can verify the EntityId and delete your orphaned one and ignore the rest.
