Description Lucia Jelinkova 2020-07-22 08:13:10 UTC 
Description of problem:
It is not possible to create a KubeVirt VM with other than SuperUser permissions.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a user account and grant the following permissions: DataCenterAdmin, VmCreator, UserVmManager, UserTemplateBasedVm
2. create a new VM from a KubeVirt template

Actual results: User does not have permissions to create a VM.


Expected results: The VM should be created.


Additional info:
I think there are 2 problems here:
1. when creating a template from KubeVirt, no permissions are added to the db. For normal templates, the UserTemplateBasedVm is granted for everyone
2. when calculating the permissions for an entity, it is checked not only for the entity itself but also for the parent. However, the check for templates is based on the assumption that there is an image associated with the template. That is not the case so the template does not have any parent found (https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/blob/b502501fc127044d6cacc7363317add5e21e1092/packaging/dbscripts/create_functions.sql#L251)
