Hello,
I want to change the ownership of some virtual machines hosted by a gsx server (3.2) on a Linux Host (SLES 9.2).
I thought that it would be sufficient to change Unix permissions on files inside the /var/lib/vmware/machines/virtual_machine_name directory (by using chown new_owner.users -R /var/lib/vmware/virtual_machine_name/) and the user associated to the vm entry in the /etc/vmware/vm-list-private file.
However, even after having restarted the gsx server by entering the following command line :
/etc/init.d/vmware restart
my new user (that has been created with the adduser program) can't see the VM in his vmware-console window. The old owner of the VM can still see the virtual machine name in the vm list in his vmware-console window, but can't use it.
How can i change the ownership of a virtual machine ?
Thank you very much for your attention !
Regards,
