Provide how to create IAM Roles #80

Closed making closed 1 year ago

making commented 1 year ago

This EC2 instance should have IAM roles attached to access the EKS cluster & ECR Repos. https://github.com/aws-quickstart/quickstart-vmware-tanzu-application-platform/blob/main/tap-setup-scripts/TAP-SETUP-README.md#prerequisites

Having IAM Roles is a prerequisite but it would be very helpful if you provide the way to create it especially for those who are not familiar with IAM (like me). Thanks!

Hi @making!

The necessary IAM Role is automatically created as part of the deployment (code reference) and attached to the Linux bastion host EC2 instance via an Instance Profile (code reference), so all of the necessary permissions are already available.

@satya-dillikar Do you think we need to update the docs here to make this clearer?

OK, the doc may be outdated. I was able to create the IAM Role by referring the template. Thanks!

Aha, I missed this. I think the file TAP-SETUP-README.md should not be exposed to users as it is only for internal reference.

We can remove this file now. cc: @tlindsay42
