Use blueprint actions and entitlements together to maintain detailed control over provisioned machines.

About this task

Entitlements control which machine operations specific users can access. Blueprint actions control which machine operations can be performed on machines provisioned from a blueprint. For example, if you disable the option to reprovision machines created from a blueprint, then the option to reprovision a machine created from the blueprint does not appear for any users. If you enable the reprovision machine operation, then users who are entitled to reprovision machines can reprovision machines created from this blueprint.

Note:

The options that appear on the Actions tab depend on your platform and any customizations made to your vRealize Automation instance.
