Re: [ovirt-users] Access VM Console on a Smart Phone with User Permission

I tried this workaround, I tried to logon the user acct to moVirt with 1 of the admin permission resources, it works I can access to the VM assigned however I'm able to see what Admin can see in the portal though not able to perform action. So far that's one of my concern the user should be able to see just his/her VM assigned.
