We just migrated all our ESX servers from vcenter 2.5 Update 5 to vcenter 4 as a part of upgrade. when we give access for users to change VLAN for a virtual machine i see the error as above.
i attached the screenshot of the error. all the VLAN configurations (network) are correct and virtual machiens on that VLAN working fine. I gave Rights to change the seettings for virtual machine. Even i gave Administrator rights for testing. Nothing worked out.
Any suggestion much appreciated...
i think this might be a bug in the process of vsphere upgrade.
some other bugs i noticed are
1) You cannot send Ctrl alt del on a VM ..
2) Permissions not working on Virtual machines for users to change settings.
any one any suggestions please?
Just a thought, allocate permissions on the network objects themselves under Inventory -> Networking.

hi.
As you said that is correct. but in vsphere there is a bug. Permissions wont apply if you give something at virtual machine level. to achieve this
give readonly permissions at cluster level... and on that VM assign appropriate rights. this is a bug.
it will will be solved in vSphere Update 1 thats going to come in 2 to 4 weeks.
issue resolved until vsphere Updaet 1
