Parth Jagirdar commented on CLOUDSTACK-4788:
--------------------------------------------
Please provide link to VMWare KB's if you can find one to make user creation
process easier. Although not in Cs scope; good to have link pointing to KB.

> Admin may not want to share Administrator password; And may want to limit
> cloudstack accessing only a certain DC's.
> In such cases adding a VMWare DC would require following steps.
> • Add a user (standard user)
> • Go to the DC that CS needs to manage and under Add Permissions, add the
> user with Administrator role
> • Create a zone in CS, providing the DC and vCenter information along
> with the newly created user credentials
> This way CS would only have access to that specific DC and Root Administrator
> password will not be compromised.
