You manage Hyper-V host servers and virtual machines (VMs) by using Microsoft System
Center Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) 2008 R2. You grant a user the Delegated
Administrator user role. You need to provide the user with the ability to manage VMs through
the VMM Self-Service Portal. What should you do?
A.
In VMM, grant the user the Administrator user role.
B.
In VMM, grant the user the Self-Service user role.
C.
Enable the Single sign-on for Terminal Services option for the VMM Self-Service Portal.
D.
Enable the Integrated Windows Authentication option for the VMM Self-Service Portal.
Explanation:
In virtual machine self-service, a virtual machine has an owner (by default, the user who
created the virtual machine) and a self-service user role (by default, the self-service user role
under which the virtual machine was created). The virtual machine’s owner is the only
person who can see and perform operations on a virtual machine in the VMM Self-Service
Portal. A self-service user can change the owner of his own virtual machine to any other
member of the self-service user role. If the owner is a member of more than one self-service
user role, the user can change the virtual machine owner to any member of his other roles if
the following requirements are met:
The current owner must belong to the self-service user role that is being assigned.
The virtual machine must be within the scope (host or library path) of that user role.
Delegated Administrator role—Members of a role based on the Delegated Administrator
profile have full VMM administrator rights, with a few exceptions, on all objects in the scope
defined by the host groups and library that are assigned to the role. A delegated
administrator cannot modify VMM settings or add or remove members of the Administrator
role.
Self-Service User role—Members of a role based on the Self-Service User profile can
manage their own virtual machines within a restricted environment. Self-service users use
the VMM Self-Service Web Portal to manage their virtual machines. The portal provides a
simplified view of only the virtual machines that the user owns and the operations that the
user is allowed to perform on them. Aself-service user role specifies the operations that
members can perform on their own virtual machines (these can include creating virtualmachines) and the templates and ISO image files that they can use to create virtual
machines. The user role also can place a quota on the virtual machines that a user can
deploy at any one time. Self-service users’ virtual machines are deployed transparently on
the most suitable host in the host group that is assigned to the user role.
