"You then might have to go into CreateAccountCmd implementation and check if there is some ACL for restricting domain admin in using this api as well."
public void execute(){ UserContext.current().setEventDetails("Account Name: "+getAccountName()+", Domain Id:"+getDomainId()); UserAccount userAccount = _accountService.createUserAccount(getUsername(), getPassword(), getFirstName(), getLastName(), getEmail(), getTimeZone(), getAccountName(), getAccountType(), getDomainId(), getNetworkDomain(), getDetails()); if (userAccount != null) { AccountResponse response = _responseGenerator.createUserAccountResponse(userAccount); response.setResponseName(getCommandName()); this.setResponseObject(response); } else { throw new ServerApiException(BaseCmd.INTERNAL_ERROR, "Failed to create a user account"); } } I don't see any acl for restricting domain admin in using this api. I will modify commands.properties.in and test it later. "domain admin to execute this api (change 3 to 7)." and what is 3 and 7 stand for? "I think there was discussion/work planned to make ACL more fine grained in the future releases as well" you mean the CloudStack will have a UI to set the ACL for user and admin? my use case is quite simple,admin customize some templates and serviceoffings, user can create a vm via these templates and serviceoffings, user has to apply disk,and admin create disk and attach disk for user. thanks a lot. 2012/9/18 Nitin Mehta <nitin.me...@citrix.com> > I am not sure if there is any documentation around for this but I think > you will need to proceed in a similar fashion as I suggested for > createAccount api. > Or you can use another account type RESOURCE_DOMAIN_ADMIN which has > permissions to do this.
