Hi all,

One of our departments has requested creation of a VM for certain testing purposes on our Proxmox 8 cluster. I don't want to grant them full admin access to the full cluster with all the VM's, but I do want to grant them admin access to their own VM. The need to be able to boot/reboot etc and perform OS installations. In an ideal world they would not be allowed to change the allocated resources like CPU, RAM, storage, network etc.
Would that be possible, if so how?

Thanks in advance for your advise.

Nico

You will need to give the user access to the resources they need. So if they should be able to edit virtual disks, or which ISO is used, access to the storages. For networks, you can give permissions on full zones or individual VNETs (vmbr). The latter by navigating to the zone in the tree view and selecting the particular vnet. then on the right you can assign permissions.
