Regarding this note from the docs:

Bug #5006: Permission Denied while attempting to create new host provisioned by vcenter. - Foreman
Basically our VMware user doesn't have permissions to traverse the data
centers because we only have access to a specific cluster within VMware.
This seems like a fairly standard practice in large organizations for
access control purposes. Has anyone had any luck at patching this to point
to a specific cluster? I'm not sure on the details of how to get this to
work.
Thanks.
