I need the specific permissions required in VMWare when migrating form VMware ESX to Azure. I am currently getting an error "Insufficient permissions in the host operating system."

Thank you. I have looked at that route. other hurdles there as well. This tool looks like it should work I just need to know permission required in VMWare to let the VM Admins know so they can accommodate me.

The document states read only access is required. I have elevated rights beyond read yet I still get an error at the step it says opening image file. So I think the software requires something more than read access. I can browse the files in vcenter and see then no issues.
