NEW QUESTION # 64
An administrator is tasked with providing users access to objects within an existing VMware vCenter instance. The vCenter inventory has a single data center with one management vSphere cluster and five workload vSphere clusters.
The following requirements must be met for assigning the users access:
* Users must only be able to view all of the inventory objects associated with the management vSphere cluster.
* Users must be able to edit all of the inventory objects associated with the workload vSphere clusters.
The administrator creates a custom role to provide the permissions needed to allow users to edit inventory objects.
Which series of steps should the administrator complete to assign the custom role and provide the required level of access to users?
- A. Apply Global permissions to assign the Read Only role to the root vCenter object.
Apply vCenter permissions to assign the custom role to the workload vSphere clusters and enable propagation. - B. Apply Global permissions to assign the Read Only role to the root vCenter object and enable propagation. Apply vCenter permissions to assign the custom role to the workload vSphere clusters.
- C. Apply Global permissions to assign the Read Only role to the root vCenter object and enable propagation. Apply vCenter permissions to assign the custom role to the workload vSphere clusters and enable propagation.
- D. Apply Global permissions to assign the Read Only role to the root vCenter object. Apply vCenter permissions to assign the custom role to the workload vSphere clusters.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Option D is correct because it allows the administrator to apply Global permissions to assign the Read Only role to the root vCenter object and enable propagation, which will apply to all of the inventory objects in vCenter, and then apply vCenter permissions to assign the custom role to the workload vSphere clusters, which will override the Global permissions and allow users to edit all of the inventory objects associated with the workload vSphere clusters. Option A is incorrect because it will not enable propagation for the Global permissions, which will limit the Read Only role to the root vCenter object only. Option B is incorrect because it will enable propagation for both the Global and vCenter permissions, which will create a conflict between the Read Only and custom roles. Option C is incorrect because it will not enable propagation for either the Global or vCenter permissions, which will limit the Read Only role to the root vCenter object only and the custom role to the workload vSphere clusters only.
