[one-users] a question on restricted use of context files by normal users in ONe3.2

[Carlos Martín Sánchez]

Hi,

Since OpenNebula 3.4 you can change the restricted attributes in oned.conf,
see [1].

If for any reason you can't upgrade, the only option you have left is to
modify the code. The list of restricted VM attributes is defined in
src/vm/VirtualMachineTemplate.cc,
VirtualMachineTemplate::RESTRICTED_ATTRIBUTES


Regards
