Glad your sorted, I've added a bugzilla entry
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1656794
basically Webadmin allows you to add a system permission to the everyone group but you
can't remove it.
Regards,
Paul S.

Thank you for your help! This worked flawlessly and helped me understand the engine
database a little more!

Get the id for the UserRole
https://engine.example.com/ovirt-engine/api/roles
connect to the engine database
e.g.
psql -h localhost -U engine -d engine
select * from permissions where ad_element_id='groupid';
note the id of the permission, probably the last one but you can check by the role_id
then delete the permission.
delete from permissions where id='noted before';
you should make a backup of your system before you do this.

Yes, that's not good you need to remove the UserRole system permission but they fixed
it so you can't.

I think there maybe a bug that allows you to add system permissions to the everyone group
in 4.2, you're only supposed to be able to change the permissions with a dbscript.
I'll look up my notes on how to remove the permission from the DB.

What are the permissions for the group everyone, in particular the system permission
should be just UserProfileEditor.

Subject: [ovirt-users] The built in group Everyone is troublesome.
So all my VMs are inheriting system permissions from group
everyone and giving all my users access to all my VMs, in ovirt 4.2. Is
there a best practices guide or any recommendation on how to clear this
up? Clicking remove on everyone does not work because Ovirt won't allow
me to remove a built in account.
Thank you
