Access is determined based on the credentials used by VCEMCLI.
• VCEM Administrator—Manages all VCEM resources. All operations are permitted to all
resources.
• VCEM Domain Group Administrator—Manages VC Domains and server profiles in one or
more VC Domain Groups.
• VCEM Domain Group Limited Operator—Manages the same tasks as the VCEM Domain Group
Operator except for creating, editing, and deleting a server profile.
• VCEM Domain Group Operator—Manages server profiles in one or more VC Domain Groups.
• VCEM User (Read Only)—Has read-only access to all VCEM resources.
