Hi
I have a Log Insight 3.0 and vCenter Server 5.5 U2b environment set-up.
I created a clone of Read-Only and added the following permissions:
Global.Licenses
Global.SetCustomField
Host.Config.AdvancedConfig
Host.Config.NetService
Host.Config.Network
Host.Config.Settings
System.Anonymous
System.Read
System.View
This role is Propagated from the Datacenters (top-level) and connected to an AD user account.
When I integrate Log Insight with my vCenter everything checks out and it's saved correctly from the Administration tab for the particular vCenter Server (collect vCenter Server events, tasks and alarms is checked), but nothing ever shows up in vCenter Alarms / tasks despite there being a lot of stuff from at least a month back. I use a custom range that should be sufficient.
I tried the same in our development environment with an Administrator privileged account and this works fine, I get a lot of vCenter Alarms and whatnot in the dashboards. However, I want to use the least amount of permissions if possible.
Am I missing a permission/privilege? Is there a log file that I can check for errors/warnings?
