Doc Text:	Previously, attempting to approve a host in a data center as a user with SuperUser permissions for that data center would fail under certain conditions due to an authorization error. This was caused by the logic used in the ChangeVdsCluster operation for hosts with a status of PendingApproval, in which the host would not have any assigned permissions in that state and the user did not have permissions for the default data center to which the host had been added. Now, the logic for checking permissions in the ChangeVdsCluster operation has been revised so that users with SuperUser permissions for a given data center can approve hosts added under that data center.
