Dear All,
Process of database "fixing" is required because adding system permissions to
the "Everyone" group is a one-way process that causes many problems and there is
no way to rescue from the GUI, only options are to restore from backup or rebuild the
permissions database.
The next issue, is that CPU Profiles are locked out to even the SuperUser - so creating a
VM with the SuperUser account with reset permissions is denied:
User doesn't have permissions to assign the cpu profile Default with id
58ca604e-01a7-003f-01de-000000000250 to VMs.
I consider that to be a bug, personally, as a SuperUser should have access to everything
by definition.
To solve this in the mean time, i need to know the object_type_id of a cpu profile to
manually reassign permissions to it (you can't control CPU profile permissions in the
GUI either, only view).
Regards,
Callum

Everything you should every be doing in the engine is available via the API/UI. Just some
general advice.

Dear All & Donny,
Thank you for the clarifications, very useful indeed.
A note for future users who go down this path and dont want to restore or reinstall:
Cleaning out the `permissions` table in the database and restoring the defaults will solve
the issue, but you need to restore the SuperUser permission on the admin@internal
account:
Learning from here:
https://www.ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/action-permissions-overview/
Clean out your `roles_groups` and `permissions`
DELETE FROM `permissions`;
DELETE FROM `roles_groups`;
Restore the defaults:
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/blob/master/packaging/dbscripts/dat...
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/blob/master/packaging/dbscripts/dat...
Re-assign the SuperUser role to the admin@internal user:
Either:
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/blob/master/packaging/bin/ovirt-eng...
Or just go straight into your localhost psql on your engine, replacing information as
appropriate:
Get your external_id from the users table and use it in the function:
SELECT external_id FROM `users` WHERE `name` = 'admin' AND `domain` =
'internal-authz';
select
attach_user_to_role('admin','internal-authz','*','#external_id#','SuperUser');
Regards,
Callum
I think the root cause here is that you are trying to login to the webadmin and not the vm
portal. User are authorized to login to the web admin
only if they have a role of type 'admin'. And UserRole is a 'user' type.
So the solution is not the give SuperUser for all those users, this is just a workaround.
If you want to know for sure, go to Administration - Configure - Roles.
So ask yourself why users need access to the webadmin at all. If they need admin
permission assign them an appropriate role on the DC or the cluster.
If not, they use the VM portal.
Having said all that, if nothing helps and the db needs 'fixing' (I doubt it
though) then this is a bug.

A new issue, when in the VM portal as the LDAP user, i get HTTP basic auth login prompts,
and a "Authorization expired" error, then a page reload. Nothing in the logs

Dear Ondra, all,
Managed to solve this once i got my head around the properties file. Conceptually the

additional group memberships specified by memberUid entries against a posixGroup entry.

Dear Ondra,
I went for openldap-rfc2307 as that best describes our ldap setup. The issue seems to be
that the gidNumber is set, but users are not a member of their primary group within the
LDAP. So, user's gidNumber represents primary group and posixGroup membership
(memberUid) represents their secondary groups. What's the best way to approach this
(fix the filters on oVirt end or change the LDAP? This is a question of what is most
compliant with standards really).
