My client cannot start, stop or restart his VM in a DevTestLab even by having the right role on it. The error says that he doesn't have the right access on it :

MicrosoftTeams-image (2)

Here is the role I gave him on the DevTestLab :

    It appeared that the DevTest Labs User should create the VM on their own
    to have control over it, once they create a VM they become owners over the specific resource. So the user of the VM should have the role "Owner" or "Contributor" on the ressource to be able to access it.
