Permissions needed to deploy from and create ovf file

I'm looking for the exact virtual center permissions to be applied to a role that are needed to deploy a vm from an ovf file and to create an ovf file.  I've looked through KB articles, admin guides, and google searches and not had much success.  Surely someone out there is allowing their user community to deploy from ovf's without making these users full admins.  Or am I completely alone in this desire?

Hey dscottimw,

Its not something that's impossible. It requires a custom role with lot of related privileges that have to be enabled. once you figure that out it sure will be possible.
