Hello, I have ran into a issue while trying to created a restricted user in proxmox.

To provide details, I have a proxmox stack that has 5 nodes, (PVE1 - PVE5). I would like to create a user that has full access to PVE5 only.
meaning they can see all the previous VMs on PVE5, create, start, stop, and administer PVE5 the node itself and all the VMs on it. But I want to restrict their access to all other nodes (PVE1 - PVE4). Ideally I would only want them to be able to expand PVE5 however, blocking them from doing anything on PVE1-4 would work as well.


I have searched through multiple forums and found similar questions to mine that have received the answer that doing something like this is not currently possible in proxmox the only potential work around would be to give the restricted user access to storage specific to PVE5. Unfortunately Due to my setup that is not possible I currently have all my nodes PVE1-5 sharing the same QNAP storage.

All of the forum Questions I have seen about this same issue are from at least 2 years ago so I wanted to ask again and see if there have been and potential developments in this capability. Or new workaround that could potentially fit my setup.
