Hello,
I want to create a user for an operator, and a role for him, which is just enough to put the host in maintenance mode and shutdown/reboot.
What are the minimal privileges for this role ?
Thanks
Privilege - Host > Configuration > Maintenance - (this allows:
Put a host into or out of maintenance mode
Reboot a host
Shut down a host

Yes, thanks.
But I would like this operator able to connect to the system host console, and shutdown/reboot the host.
And I just tried, an account with this privilege can connect via the virtual infrastructure client, but not on the host console (only root can do actually).
So, is there a role for that ? Or a mandatory UID (mine was created with UID 500) ? Or only root can do ?
Thanks,
So... I will reply to myself...
To be able to access host local console, and do a shutdown/reboot, this user must be in the "localadmin" group. If it's only for that purpose, no role is necessary.
