After upgrading to vCenter Server 6 from 5.5 some of our users permissions seem to have changed. We have assigned permissions to groups of users at a folder level to manage and see only their VMs. This role allows them to perform common tasks.
After upgrading, when a user tries ot power on one of their VM's they receive the following error:
Name: Power On Virtual Machine
Status: Permission to perform this operation was denied. You do not hold privilege "System > Read" on host ""
We can resolve the issue by giving the users read only privaledges at the host level and not propogate but this is a lot of work in our environments to perform this on all hosts for our users. Has something changed in vsphere 6?
