Otherwise, it is necessary to ensure that the user with the listed privileges has permissions granted on all necessary entities in the vCenter. In addition, the user must have `Read-Only` privileges on the compute-node VM and all parent entities (`vCenter`, `Datacenter`, `Datastore Cluster`, and `Datastore Storage Folder`).
