Hi Itamar ,=20
I would be happy to throw in an idea .=20
I think oVirt is lacking the ability to assign permissions on multiple VMs =
at once .=20
For example , if I want to grant permissions to a certain user on 30=20
VMs , I need to do it manually (or with some script).=20
I think this feature is essential for an enterprise aimed product.=20
Also it would be really cool to have an ability to create groups within oVi=
rt and not in the directory, and=20
grant a group permissions on a vm instead of adding them one by one .=20
For example , creating a group called Dev and give the group=20
permissions on all relevant VMs instead of adding each user one by one .=20
Hope to see this feature in the next versions .=20
Thanks,=20
Dotan Paz ,=20
