Apply RBAC role permissions for a VM to other VMs
You can apply the role permissions that are applied to a VM to other VMs in the environment. Note the following requirements and limitations:
Only the RBAC roles that are assigned at the VM asset-level can be applied to other VM assets. RBAC roles that are inherited from the VM's parent cannot be applied to other VM assets (for example, the vCenter level or the global VMware level).
RBAC roles that are inherited from other assets cannot be applied to individual VMware assets.
The user must have the permissions "Manage access" and "View" on a VM and a target VM to be able to view, select, and apply RBAC roles to other VMs. If a user has the role on a VM, then they have this permission.
To apply RBAC role permissions for a VM to other VMs
- On the left, click Workloads > VMware.
- Select the VM that has the roles that you want to apply to the other VMs.
- Select Manage permissions.
- Select the role names that you want to apply to the target VMs.
To view the permissions that are applied to any role, expand the role name.
- Click Assign role to assets.
- Choose how you want to apply the selected role permissions.
Add to existing permissions
This option adds any RBAC permissions from the selected roles that do not already exist for the target VMs. The existing permissions are also retained for the target VMs.
Replace existing permissions
This option replaces the RBAC permissions for the target VMs. The existing permissions are replaced with the permissions from the selected roles.
- Select the target VMs to which you want to apply the selected role permissions.
- Click Apply.
