Preparations

Registering with Huawei Cloud

If you already have a Huawei Cloud account, skip this part. If you do not have a Huawei Cloud account, perform the following operations to create one:

  1. Visit https://www.huaweicloud.com/intl/en-us/ and click Register.
  2. On the page displayed, register an account as prompted.

    After the registration is successful, the system redirects you to your personal information page.

Obtaining Resource Permissions

To support Cloud Container Engine (CCE) clusters, UCS requires the permissions for accessing CCE. When you log in to the UCS console for the first time, the UCS automatically requests the permission to better serve you.

After you agree to delegate the permissions, an agency named ucs_admin_trust will be created for UCS in Identity and Access Management (IAM). The system account op_svc_ucs will be delegated the Tenant Administrator role to perform operations on other cloud service resources. Tenant Administrator has the permissions on all cloud services except IAM, which calls the cloud services on which UCS depends. For details, see Delegating Resource Access to Another Account.

UCS may fail to run as expected if the Tenant Administrator role is not assigned. Therefore, do not delete or modify the ucs_admin_trust agency when using UCS.

If a misoperation is performed, see How Do I Restore System Agency ucs_admin_trust I Deleted?.

(Optional) Creating a DNS Record Set

UCS distributes your service traffic by resolving domain names using the DNS service. To use a domain name to access a cluster, you need to add a DNS record set for the domain name on the DNS console.

For details about how to add a record set, see Configuring Record Sets for a Website.

You need to register the domain name via the domain name registrar.

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Hover on the upper left corner to display Service List and choose Networking > Domain Name Service.
  3. In the navigation pane, choose Public Zones.
  4. (Optional) In the upper right corner of the page, click Create Public Zone.

    After you register a domain name with Huawei Cloud, a public zone will be automatically created. You can jump to 6.

  5. (Optional) Set Name to example.com.
  6. Click the zone name example.com to access the record sets page.
  7. In the upper right corner of the page, click Add Record Set and set parameters as prompted to add an A record set for the domain name.
  8. Click OK.
