Viewing permissions information

Last published : Jul 06, 2026
You can use the Management Server console to view the permissions information. You can view the following details:
Name Displays the name of the perspective, Organization, and the object on which the permissions are assigned.
Type Displays the type of the object for example host, cluster, service group, enclosure, or virtualization server.
If permissions are assigned on the perspective, the type column displays "Perspective" and in case of an Organization, the type column displays "Organization".
Perspective Displays the perspective name to which the object or the Organization belongs to.
This column is displayed only in the Management Server perspective.
User group Displays the name of the user group.
Role Displays the type of role that is assigned to the user group.
You can view information for only those objects within the perspective on which you have at least Guest role explicitly assigned or inherited from the parent Organization. You can also view the information if your user group has a role assigned on the perspective.
If multiple user groups have permissions on the same Organization, you can filter the list using Show only my user groups. You can only delete the permissions that are assigned to your user group.
You can view this information, if your user group has at least Guest role assigned on the perspective.

  • In the Home page on the Management Server console, do one of the following:
    • Go to a perspective and select Manage in the left pane. Right-clickData Center and selectShow Permissions.
