When deploying Faddom to discover a VMware vCenter-based environment, Faddom can use the VMware APIs to collect additional data on your environment.
In order to discover details on your VMware VMs and hosts, Faddom needs read-only access to the vCenter.
If you wish Faddom to deploy sensors and/or enable NetFlow automatically, you will need to add the following permissions. Once the deployment is complete, you can revert to read-only.
