I'm used to being a veeam global administrator, but this time around I am to manage a veeam one instance with lesser privileges.
I'm now a Veeam ONE Power User, and it shows as power user when I logon to the web client.
But if I open the Veeam ONE Console and logon with the same user, I'm greeted with the message "Veeam ONE Client was auched by a user with read-only permissions.[...]"
I cannot suppress any alarms nor can I drill down processes or services tabs, etc. Functionality seems as limited as if I was a read-only user, I'm not seeing any added permissions now that I am in the Power Users group.
Is this by design?
Cheers,
Fernando

Re: Power User shows as read-only in One console
Hello Fernando,
I think that is expected, as Power Users can, for example, run reports, edit dashboards, etc. But read-only on the rest of the items, including alarms, etc.
There is some information here:
https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/one/r ... ml?ver=120
But I agree that we can have a more detailed table with all the actions per role. I will ask internally, and hopefully, we can make this much clear.
Thank you

Hello Fernando,
Are you just asking or do you really need to have a power user for the console?
If yes, what would be the use cases?
Thanks

Re: Power User shows as read-only in One console
No, I'm not just asking. I do feel the need.
I've been a global veeam admin since 2013, but now I'm in this situation in a new job where our backups are outsourced to a MSP but they gave us access to Veeam ONE. I am a domain admin and a vONE power user and I find it too limited even as a Power User.
As a domain admin I am entitled to do whatever I need to to my virtual infrastructure, but I cannot, for contract reasons, do any modifications to anything that is related to backups.
I would like to be able to create, modify, delete, acknowledge or resolve alarms, fine tune notifications, basically everything except changing server settings or have any impact on the plausible deniability our MSP requires.
I'm sure someone out there feels the same need: as a infrastructure manager one needs all the monitoring power of vONE in a role in which he has absolutely nothing to do with backups.

Re: Power User shows as read-only in One console
Hello Fernando,
Agree. It makes sense to have a power user for the console or to get access to the alarm management at least.
At the moment I cannot promise anything but we will discuss this topic with the teams internally for sure.
Thanks a lot for the feedback.
