Updating an existing user account with cloud administrator permissions

If you use a third-party solution for building and managing cloud infrastructure, such as VMware vCloud Suite or Amazon Web Services, you can integrate that infrastructure as a provider type in BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management.

Use this procedure to grant cloud administrator permissions to an existing user account.
