Set Up Policies in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

In Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, you use policies to control access to resources in your tenancy.

Before deploying Oracle Analytics Server on a compartment in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, your tenant administrator must set up policies that enable you (and other users) to access or create the following resources in specific compartments.

  • Marketplace applications
  • Compute instances
  • Network VPNs and subnets
  • Database for storing Oracle Analytics Server schemas
  • Resource manager stacks and jobs
  1. In Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console, click Navigation menu icon in the top left corner.
  2. Click Identity & Security. Under Identity, select Policies
  3. Select the root compartment, and then click Create Policy.

Set up policies that are appropriate for your organization. Here is a sample policy template, with each row being a policy statement. 

allow group mygroup_name to read compartments in tenancy
allow group mygroup_name to manage instance-family in compartment mycompartment_name
allow group mygroup_name to use virtual-network-family in compartment mycompartment_name
allow group mygroup_name to manage orm-family in compartment mycompartment_name
