Portainer server ServiceAccount #141

Open tmarback opened 7 months ago

tmarback commented 7 months ago

Hello,

I noticed that, with the manifests (or the Helm template) in this repository, the pods for the Portainer server mount a service account with cluster-admin access. However, if I understand correctly, all interactions that Portainer has with Kubernetes are done through the agent, not directly by the server. Is there a reason why the server's pods also need cluster admin access to run?

Don't need an agent to manage the cluster where Portainer Server is running. Only need to deploy agents to clusters other clusters that you would need to manage.
