About role and permission on vsphere 5.1

Hi guys,

i have a vcenter 5.1 and a ESX farm 5.1 with about 10 host.

I need to automate the vm provisioning also to other group that doesnt have a administrative privilage on ESX using template.

So i need that this group during the vm provisionig can modify e vm configuration (more ram or cpu) but don't want that this group con chang ethe configuration after create the vm (for example after some day)

The question is:

can i set a permission/configuration ad-hoc for permit to modify cap/ram on vm only during provisiong step ?

Thanks in advance.

Perhaps using some PowerCLI, first add the permissions, then deploy / provision via PowerCLI and remove it at the end of the script.

Hi tomtom901,

thanks for your reply.

I can force a powercli script execution during a classic vcenter provisionig (template>vm) wizard ?

If yes how i can do it ?

Do you have some example ?

Thanks in advance.
