Post-Upgrade Changes in vCenter Chargeback
When you upgrade an existing vCenter Chargeback 1.0 or 1.0.1 installation to vCenter Chargeback 1.5, the
installer makes changes to the user-defined resources created in the existing installation.
In vCenter Chargeback 1.5, user names are case-insensitive. Therefore, the installer renames users in the
existing setup that have the same name but with different casing. The installer uses the prefix
for the duplicate names. You can rename users with such prefix appropriately.
Unlike earlier release, in vCenter Chargeback 1.5 a user cannot be assigned individual privileges on the entities.
Therefore, privileges assigned to the user on entities are grouped together into roles after upgrade. These roles
have names with the prefix
If a vCenter Server is added to vCenter Chargeback with the Register as Plugin option selected, then the user
whose authentication details are used when adding the vCenter Server is automatically added to vCenter
Chargeback. Also, vCenter Server users who have generated reports on this vCenter Server are automatically
added to vCenter Chargeback. You can delete the users that are not required and also assign appropriate roles
on the ones that are required.
