Permission Dependency of the CCE Console

Some CCE permissions policies depend on the policies of other cloud services. To view or use other cloud resources on the CCE console, enable the system policy access control feature of IAM and assign dependency policies for the other cloud services.

Dependency policies are assigned based on the CCE FullAccess or CCE ReadOnlyAccess policy you configure.
Only users and user groups with namespace permissions can gain the view access to resources in clusters.
- If a user is granted the view access to all namespaces of a cluster, the user can view all namespace resources (except secrets) in the cluster. To view secrets in the cluster, the user must gain the admin or edit role in all namespaces of the cluster.
- HPA policies take effect only after the cluster-admin permissions are configured for the namespace.
- The view role within a single namespace allows users to view resources only in the specified namespace.

Dependency Policy Configuration

To grant an IAM user the permissions to view or use resources of other cloud services on the CCE console, you must first grant the CCE Administrator, CCE FullAccess, or CCE ReadOnlyAccess policy to the user group to which the user belongs and then grant the dependency policies listed in Table 1 to the user. These dependency policies will allow the IAM user to access resources of other cloud services.

CCE supports fine-grained permissions configuration, but has the following restrictions:

AOM does not support resource-level monitoring. After operation permissions on specific resources are configured using IAM's fine-grained cluster resource management function, IAM users can view cluster monitoring information on the Dashboard page of the CCE console, but cannot view the data on non-fine-grained metrics.

**Table 1** Dependency policies
Console Function	Dependent Services	Roles or Policies Required
Cluster overview	Application Operations Management (AOM)	An IAM user with CCE Administrator assigned can use this function only after AOM FullAccess policy is assigned. IAM users with IAM ReadOnlyAccess, CCE FullAccess, or CCE ReadOnlyAccess assigned can directly use this function.
Workload management	Elastic Load Balance (ELB) Application Performance Management (APM) Application Operations Management (AOM) NAT Gateway Object Storage Service (OBS) Scalable File Service (SFS)	Except in the following cases, the user does not require any additional role to create workloads. To create a Service using ELB, you must have ELB FullAccess or ELB Administrator plus VPC Administrator assigned. To use a Java probe, you must have AOM FullAccess and APM FullAccess assigned. To create a Service using NAT Gateway, you must have NAT Gateway Administrator assigned. To use OBS, you must have OBS Administrator globally assigned. NOTE: Because of the cache, it takes about 13 minutes for the RBAC policy to take effect after being granted to users, enterprise projects, and user groups. After an OBS-related system policy is granted, it takes about 5 minutes for the policy to take effect. To use SFS, you must have SFS FullAccess assigned.
Cluster management	Application Operations Management (AOM)	Auto scale-out or scale-up requires the AOM FullAccess policy.
Node management	Elastic Cloud Server (ECS)	If the permission assigned to an IAM user is CCE Administrator, creating or deleting a node requires the ECS FullAccess or ECS Administrator policy and the VPC Administrator policy.
Networking	Elastic Load Balance (ELB) NAT Gateway	Except in the following cases, the user does not require any additional role to create a Service. To create a Service using ELB, you must have ELB FullAccess or ELB Administrator plus VPC Administrator assigned. To create a Service using NAT Gateway, you must have NAT Administrator assigned.
Container storage	Object Storage Service (OBS) Scalable File Service (SFS) SFS Turbo	To use OBS, you must have OBS Administrator globally assigned. NOTE: Because of the cache, it takes about 13 minutes for the RBAC policy to take effect after being granted to users, enterprise projects, and user groups. After an OBS-related system policy is granted, it takes about 5 minutes for the policy to take effect. To use SFS, you must have SFS FullAccess assigned. Using SFS Turbo requires the SFS Turbo Admin role. The CCE Administrator role is required for importing storage devices.
Namespace management	None	None
Chart management	None	Cloud accounts and the IAM users with CCE Administrator assigned can use this function.
Add-on management	None	Cloud accounts and the IAM users with CCE Administrator, CCE FullAccess, or CCE ReadOnlyAccess assigned can use this function.
Permissions management	None	For cloud accounts, no additional policy/role is required. IAM users with CCE Administrator or global Security Administrator assigned can use this function. IAM users with the CCE FullAccess or CCE ReadOnlyAccess permission can access the namespace. In addition, the IAM users must have the administrator permissions (cluster-admin) on the namespace.
ConfigMaps and Secrets	None	Creating ConfigMaps does not require any additional policy. Viewing secrets requires that the cluster-admin, admin, or edit permission be configured for the namespace. The DEW KeypairFullAccess or DEW KeypairReadOnlyAccess policy must be assigned for dependent services.
Help center	None	None
Switching to other related services	Software Repository for Container (SWR) Application Operations Management (AOM)	The CCE console provides links to other related services. To view or use these services, an IAM user must be assigned required permissions for the services.
