Description of problem:
I have a user that has power user persmissions to whole system and he is unable to perform any operations with snapshots on any VM.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.0.5-6

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a user with power user permission to system

3. try to create/preview/delete a snapshot

Actual results:
insufficient permissions

Expected results:
can perform any action with snapshots on VMs the user has rights to

Comment 1 Tomas Jelinek 2016-11-14 15:33:40 UTC 
That is because the MANIPULATE_VM_SNAPSHOTS is not part of the Power User Role.
I don't think it ever was.
@Petr: from documentation it is not really clear what it should do. If you still think MANIPULATE_VM_SNAPSHOTS should be part of Power User Role, please change this BZ to be an RFE.
Comment 2 Greg Sheremeta 2019-02-05 11:26:40 UTC 
Implemented in oVirt 4.3.0
