Issue/Introduction

Symptoms:

  • An administrator created a "read-only" user to check the replication status, but the user is unable to view the vSphere replication status.
  • When a user logs in to the Site Recovery home page, selects a site pair, and clicks on View Details, they will find that the Replications tab is missing.

Environment

VMware vSphere Replication 8.x
VMware vCenter Server

Cause

The user cannot see the replication status or replication tab because they need to be assigned privileges to view the VMs' replication status.

 
 

Resolution

  • VRM remote -> View VR
  • VRM remote -> View VRM
  • VRM datastore mapper -> View
  • VRM replication -> View replications
  • Virtual machine -> vSphere Replication -> Monitor replication
