Inside the detailed doc
"
All RHEV Checks are executed via RHEV REST-API, so the following
requirements must be met:
HTTPS connection from Monitoring server to RHEV Manager (default: TCP/8443)
RHEV Admin user for REST-API login
"
Can we somehow limit the power of the user?
Is there a predefined role that has a sort of "select all" (such as
'select any table' in Oracle terms) or could it be easily built and
set?
This was required for RHEV 3.0, which was the version I initially wrote
the plugin for.
For newer versions (>= 3.1) of oVirt and RHEV you only need the
following permissions (create new role for it, or is there a role
available in oVirt > 3.2.1?):
Account Type: Admin
System - Configure System - Login Permissions
This allows a user to connect to REST-API (and Administrator Portal) and
read everything, but doesn't allow any changes (=> read only).
I'll update the documentation.
Thanks for reporting this documentation bug.
