Topic #: 4
[All PAS-C01 Questions]

A company has deployed SAP workloads on AWS The AWS Data Provider for SAP is installed on the Amazon EC2 instance where the SAP application is running An SAP solutions architect has attached an IAM role to the EC2 instance with the following policy.

The AWS Data Provider for SAP is not returning any metrics to the SAP application. Which change should the SAP solutions architect make to the 1AM permissions to resolve this issued.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The AWS Data Provider for SAP requires the ability to access metrics data in order to return metrics to the SAP application. The IAM policy statement with Sid 'AWSDataProvider1' currently does not have the necessary permissions to access metrics data. The SAP solutions architect should add the cloudwatch:GetMetricStatistics action to the policy statement with Sid 'AWSDataProvider1' to grant the necessary permissions for the Data Provider to access metrics data.

The other actions such as 'EC2:DescribeInstances' and 'EC2:DescribeVolumes' are not related to CloudWatch metrics and only provide the ability to describe EC2 instances and volumes. Actions such as 's3:GetObject' are not related to CloudWatch metrics, it's used to get an object from an S3 bucket. Actions such as 'cloudwatch:ListMetrics' and 'cloudwatch:DescribeAlarmsForMetric' would not be necessary for the AWS Data Provider for SAP to return metrics to the SAP application and it's not related to the problem described.

D seems unnecessary; just need to list or get metrics.

Hmm, I think B makes the most sense. Metrics are kind of a big deal for this setup.

B) is the correct answer. The AWS Data Provider for SAP needs the GetMetricStatistics action to retrieve metrics.

I’m a bit confused about the specific actions. I know that ListMetrics is for listing, but I’m not sure if that’s what we need here. Could it be D instead?

This question feels familiar; I think we practiced something similar where we had to adjust IAM permissions for CloudWatch. I want to say it's about getting metrics, so maybe option B?

I'm not entirely sure about this one. The question mentions the IAM policy, but it's not clear which specific action is missing. I might need to review the CloudWatch API actions to determine the best solution.

Okay, I think I've got it. The AWS Data Provider needs to be able to retrieve the actual metric data, so the GetMetricStatistics action makes the most sense. I'm going to go with option B.

I remember studying the different CloudWatch actions, but I'm not entirely sure which one is needed here. I think it might be related to retrieving metrics.

Definitely need to add permissions for CloudWatch, but not sure which one.

I recall that GetMetricStatistics is often used to fetch metric data, so I’m leaning towards option B. But I’m not completely confident about the others.

Hmm, let me think this through. The question says the AWS Data Provider is not returning any metrics, so we need to add the right CloudWatch action to the IAM policy. I'm leaning towards option B, adding the GetMetricStatistics action.

I'm a bit confused by this question. It seems like we need to figure out which IAM permission is missing for the AWS Data Provider for SAP to access CloudWatch metrics.
