Hi,

Try with the group.

Create a group in AD, add some users there and then add this group to vCenter with Administrator permissions to child objects.

Login to vCenter with a user from that group and verify the permissions.

Vor Example:
When i got to Administration - Users and Groups i got the Message "You have no privileges to view this object."

But iam in the "Administrator" Roll.

Iam also not able to Upload a VM because i got the error, that i do not have permission to the datastore.

So actually i should have the same Right like the local Administator.
With the local Administator i can also upload VMs so have permission the the datastore.

Please add your AD group to the vCenter SSO Group. Below article may help you. You need to login as administrator@vsphere.local to make this changes.

under SSO you will find a group called Administrator. In that group, please add your AD user/Group.
