A.

B.
User cannot create new alarms, and cannot modify or delete existing ones
C.
Alarms tab will be greyed out
D.
Something else here but I can’t remember but easily eliminated
Explanation:
The wording of the question may differ, but the idea is there (-had this on my exam)
answer should be C.
i tested it on my lab
Good job.
B is correct. just tested.
Alarm tab is always there.
but in right click, permission like edit, remove, rename and new alarm can change to grey.
+1, just tested as well and the answer should be B.
OK, I tested this too and the answer is A.
This is how I tested it:
I created a new test user in AD, testguy. Using my admin account I created a new role using the vSphere client by cloning the VM Power User (sample) role. This new role had no alarm permissons, so I edited the new role and added create, delete, and modify permission under the Alarms category. Note that these are separate permissions. I then went to a VM and assigned the new VM Power User role to the testguy account. I then logged into vSphere client with the testguy account and went to the VM (it was the only VM test guy had access to.) I created a VM alarm definition and added a trigger. So the VM had a new alarm on it. I logged out and logged back in with my admin account. I edited the new VM Power Users role and unselected the create alarm permission. I logged back into vSphere with the testguy account. I was unable to create a new alarm on the VM. The New Alarm menu item was grayed out. If I right click the alarm I clearly see Edit settings, Remove, Rename are all available menu items. I chose Edit Settings and I was able to modify the VM alarm definition. I added a trigger to it. I was able to remove triggers as well. I clicked OK and was able to successfully save my changes. I right clicked the alarm and selected remove and clicked Yes to confirm the removal. The alarm was successfully removed.
I believe the question is trying to find out if you know that create, modify, and delete are separate permissions regarding alarms. So I think “A” is the right answer. The question does not state that modify and delete permissions were granted previously. However if that was the case it would be a pointless question.
so what is the correct answer?
