Limiting Access and scoping/filtering data.
Hi
I spent some time exploring foglight's Group&Role functions along with Data/Query filtering but I can't get what I want to do.
About Roles. I created a new user with a new group called MathieuTestGroup and a new Role called MathieuTestRole.
I assigned that Role to several dashboard view but the user still could not access them. Until I add the Operator Role. but then several more dashboard view was accesible which is not what I want.
I really would like to limit to only a few specific views.
I played a lot removing access role to several dashboard views. when I logon a my user. my changes are not reflected accordingly.
About data filtering. We created a CustomAttributes within our VMWare vCenter called Owner. I can see it under Configuration/Data in foglight. But I have yet to find how to apply a global filter per user basis. Lets say I have a user called "foo", I'd like him to be able to access only virtual machines with the customattribute Owner set to "foo".
thank you
