Hi Matteo,

It is working as designed!
On Kimchi, only users with root access (sudo ALL) can create virtual machines.

Once the virtual machine is created, you can give an normal user access to it by changing the virtual machine permission configuration.
For that, go to Edit virtual machine > Permission tab and add users/groups you want to grant access to manage that specific virtual machine.

Regards,
Aline Manera

Hi!
we are trying Kimchi to setup a small lab environment where different
users could easily deploy test vms.
Our kimchi installation v2.2.0 [0] works very well: guest creation,
network/storage configuration etc..

There is a thing we can't do: Guest creation being users.
I already tried to add my test user "banana" to the groups
libvirt kvm libvirt-qemu
and even root without success (and then I removed the root group from
banana).

When in "Virtualization" --> "Guests" I click "+ Add a Guest" nothing
happens. The hover of the button is: "javascript:void(0);",
same thing happens with the buttons "Add a Storage" and "Add a Network".

I tried to search for a solution with no luck, is there an option/config
to allow a user create the Guests?

With the test user "banana" I am able to install a vm via virt-install
without issues,
the groups which banana is member are:

        # groups banana
        banana : banana libvirt kvm libvirt-qemu


Thank you
Matteo
