Role to create/start VMs ESXi 6.7

[Dave_Delta_Mike]

Hi!

I'm the only admin of my ESXi Servers, so I never had to create other user accounts for administration.

From the Host/Manager/Security & Users I created a new user but I can't see a way to grant him roles to Start/Create VMs.

Is this possible?

Thanks and regards.

David

Thanks for the reply. I'll read it.

Thanks again for the reply. So if a user has the privileges to create a VM I guess it also can start it, right?

Also, in ESXi I can't find a way to assign a role to a user. Can this be achieved in Command line?

Thanks

Ok,

right click host (web ESXi interface), Permissions. Assign existing user to respective role.

Thanks.
