User permission Vcenter 6 - Integration vRealize Log Insight

  • 1.  User permission Vcenter 6 - Integration vRealize Log Insight

    Good afternoon.

    I'm to deploy the solution of vRealize Log Insight latest version. In my work I was asked if I could create a user account only to integrate Vcenter with vRealize Log Insight that was not the vCenter root. Searching the documentation, I found information about it. Also important to remember that this account will collect logs of my hundreds of ESXI.

    In the image below:

    It is a demonstration of the integration that I made using the default account with root access to Vcenter.

    You should provide user credentials with the following privileges:

    System.View

    Host.Configuration.Advanced settings

    Host.Configuration.Security profile and firewall

    For additional information you can check the official documentation:

    Configure vRealize Log Insight to Pull Events, Tasks, and Alarms from vCenter Server Instance

    Configure an ESXi Host to Forward Log Events to vRealize Log Insight
