Assigning permissions at specific VMware object levels
NetBackup supports two VMware object hierarchies, the vSphere (vCenter) object hierarchy and VMware Cloud Director (VCD) object hierarchy. Access to the applicable virtual machines is granted automatically, based on the VCD object hierarchy under which they exist.
The RBAC administrator can also assign permissions at different object levels.
You can assign permissions at the following levels:
VMware vSphere server (vCenter)
Datacenter in vSphere (vCenter)
Individual VM in vCloud Director or vSphere (vCenter)
VMware Cloud Director server
Organization in vCloud Director
Organization virtual datacenter (OrgVDC) in vCloud Director
Individual vApp in vCloud Director
