Managing Cross-account Resources

Scenarios

Cloud Operations Center provides secure and reliable cross-account data aggregation and resource O&M capabilities. If your account is an enterprise-level account and is an administrator of an organization (set in the organizations cloud service) or a delegated administrator of COC, you can perform unified automatic O&M operations on resources in other accounts in the organization, preventing manpower waste caused by multi-account operations, and reducing risks such as account omission caused by manual operations.

A view consists of a group of filters. You can configure the filter criteria to access desired resources on Huawei Cloud in cross-account scenarios.

Procedure: Set basic view information, add the organization unit filtering scope, and add the resource type filtering scope.

Precautions
