## Managed Object Description

This managed object provides operations to query and update roles and permissions.

Privileges are the basic individual rights required to perform operations. They are statically defined and never change for a single version of a product. Examples of privileges are "Power on a virtual machine" or "Configure a host."

Roles are aggregations of privileges, used for convenience. For user-defined roles, the system-defined privileges, "System.Anonymous", "System.View", and "System.Read" are always present.

Permissions are the actual access-control rules. A permission is defined on a ManagedEntity and specifies the user or group ("principal") to which the rule applies. The role specifies the privileges to apply, and the propagate flag specifies whether or not the rule applies to sub-objects of the managed entity.

A ManagedEntity may have multiple permissions, but may have only one permission per user or group. If, when logging in, a user has both a user permission and a group permission (as a group member) for the same entity, then the user-specific permission takes precedent. If there is no user-specific permission, but two or more group permissions are present, and the user is a member of the groups, then the privileges are the union of the specified roles.

Managed entities may be collected together into a "complex entity" for the purpose of applying permissions consistently. Complex entities may have a Datacenter, ComputeResource, or ClusterComputeResource as a parent, with other child managed objects as additional parts of the complex entity:

- A Datacenter's child objects are the root virtual machine and host Folders.
- A ComputeResource's child objects are the root ResourcePool and HostSystem.
- A ClusterComputeResource has only the root ResourcePool as a child object.

Child objects in a complex entity are forced to inherit permissions from the parent object. When query operations are used to discover permissions on child objects of complex entities, different results may be returned for the owner of the permission. In some cases, the child object of the complex entity is returned as the object that defines the permission, and in other cases, the parent from which the permission is propagated is returned as the object that defines the permission. In both cases, the information about the owner of the permission is correct, since the entities within a complex entity are considered equivalent. Permissions defined on complex entities are always applicable on the child entities, regardless of the propagation flag, but may only be defined or modified on the parent object.

In a group of fault-tolerance (FT) protected VirtualMachines, the secondary VirtualMachines are forced to inherit permissions from the primary VirtualMachine. Queries to discover permissions on FT secondary VMs always return the primary VM as the object that defines the permissions. Permissions defined on an FT primary VM are always applicable on its secondary VMs, but can only be defined or modified on the primary VM.

# RemoveEntityPermission(removeEntityPermission)

Removes a permission rule from an entity.

This will fail with an InvalidArgument fault if called on: the direct child folders of a datacenter managed object, the root resource pool of a ComputeResource or ClusterComputeResource, or a HostSystem that is part of a ComputeResource (Stand-alone Host). These objects always have the same permissions as their parent.

This will fail with an InvalidArgument fault if called on a fault-tolerance (FT) secondary VirtualMachine. Such a VirtualMachine always has the same permissions as its FT primary VirtualMachine.

  None

_this | ManagedObjectReference | A reference to the AuthorizationManager used to make the method call.
entity P | ManagedObjectReference to a ManagedEntity | Entity on which a permission is removed. Since 2.0
user P | xsd:string | User or group for which the permission is defined. Since 2.0
isGroup P | xsd:boolean | True, if user refers to a group name; false, for a user name. Since 2.0

# ResetEntityPermissions(resetEntityPermissions)

Update the entire set of permissions defined on an entity. Any existing permissions on the entity are removed and replaced with the provided set.

If a permission is specified multiple times for the same user or group, the last permission specified takes effect.

The operation is transactional per permission and could partially fail. The updates are performed in the order of the permission array argument. The first failed update will abort the operation and throw the appropriate exception. When the operation aborts, any permissions that have not yet been removed are left in their original state.

After updates are applied, original permissions that are not in the new set are removed. A failure to remove a permission, such as a violation of the minimum administrator permission rule, will abort the operation and could leave remaining original permissions still effective on the entity.

This will fail with an InvalidArgument fault if called on: the direct child folders of a datacenter managed object, the root resource pool of a ComputeResource or ClusterComputeResource, or a HostSystem that is part of a ComputeResource (Stand-alone Host). These objects always have the same permissions as their parent.

This will fail with an InvalidArgument fault if called on a fault-tolerance (FT) secondary VirtualMachine. Such a VirtualMachine always has the same permissions as its FT primary VirtualMachine.

Parameters

Name | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
_this | ManagedObjectReference | A reference to the AuthorizationManager used to make the method call.
entity P | ManagedObjectReference to a ManagedEntity | The entity on which permissions are updated. Since 2.0
permission* P | Permission[] | The list of Permission objects that define the new rules for access to the entity and potentially entities below it. If the list is empty, all permissions on the entity are removed. Since 2.0

Type | Description

AuthMinimumAdminPermission | Thrown if this change would leave the system with no Administrator permission on the root node, or it would grant further permission to a user or group who already has Administrator permission on the root node.

RuntimeFault | Thrown if any type of runtime fault is thrown that is not covered by the other faults; for example, a communication error.

# RetrieveEntityPermissions(retrieveEntityPermissions)

Gets permissions defined on or effective on a managed entity. This returns the actual permission objects defined in the system for all users and groups relative to the managed entity. The inherited flag specifies whether or not to include permissions defined by the parents of this entity that propagate to this entity.

For complex entities, the entity reported as defining the permission may be either the parent or a child entity belonging to the complex entity.

The purpose of this method is to discover permissions for administration purposes, not to determine the current permissions. The current user's permissions are found on the EffectiveRole property of the user's ManagedEntity.

# SetEntityPermissions(setEntityPermissions)

Defines one or more permission rules on an entity or updates rules if already present for the given user or group on the entity.

If a permission is specified multiple times for the same user or group, then the last permission specified takes effect.

The operation is applied transactionally per permission and is applied to the entity following the order of the elements in the permission array argument. This means that if a failure occurs, the method terminates at that point in the permission array with an exception, leaving at least one and as many as all permissions unapplied.

This will fail with an InvalidArgument fault if called on: the direct child folders of a datacenter managed object, the root resource pool of a ComputeResource or ClusterComputeResource, or a HostSystem that is part of a ComputeResource (Stand-alone Host). These objects always have the same permissions as their parent.

This will fail with an InvalidArgument fault if called on a fault-tolerance (FT) secondary VirtualMachine. Such a VirtualMachine always has the same permissions as its FT primary VirtualMachine.
