Seems like this user as restricted privileges. You can use for example vdsCli (package vdsm-cli) for this. vdsCli [-s] 0 destroy vmid vdsCli [-s] 0 list gives you the list of running vms on the node. Note: 0 stands for the current host you're on. You also can do this remotely if you replace 0 with the IP of the node/host.
