Nutanix NCP-CI-AWS Exam - Topic 2 Question 31 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-CI-AWS exam
Question #: 31
Topic #: 2
[All NCP-CI-AWS Questions]

An administrator is tasked with adding an AWS account to the NC2 console. A requirement is to configure an AWS IAM user with the appropriate permissions.

Which permission must be assigned to the user?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

To add an AWS account to the NC2 console, an AWS IAM user needs to be configured with the appropriate permissions to manage the EC2 resources. The required permission for the IAM user includes full access to manage EC2 instances, volumes, and related resources.

AmazonEC2FullAccess:

This permission grants full access to all EC2 resources, including the ability to create, modify, and delete instances, volumes, security groups, and more.

Essential for NC2 operations to manage the lifecycle of EC2 instances and associated components within the AWS environment.

Why Not Other Permissions:

IAMFullAccess: Grants full access to IAM resources but not specifically needed for EC2 operations.

IAMReadOnlyAccess: Only provides read access to IAM resources, insufficient for managing EC2 instances.

AmazonEC2ReadOnlyAccess: Provides read-only access to EC2 resources, insufficient for creating or modifying instances and other resources.

Wait, can you really do that with just IAMReadOnlyAccess? Sounds off.

AmazonEC2FullAccess seems like overkill for just adding an account.

I believe the correct answer is D, AmazonEC2FullAccess, since we want the user to have complete control over EC2 resources.

I’m a bit confused; does the user need to manage EC2 instances or just view them? I feel like I need to double-check the requirements.

I remember practicing a similar question where we had to assign permissions for EC2, and I think it was about full access for managing instances.

I think we need to give the user permissions related to EC2, but I'm not sure if it should be full access or just read-only.

This seems straightforward. The user will need IAMFullAccess to be able to manage the necessary permissions for the AWS account integration.

I dunno, maybe we should just give them the nuclear launch codes while we're at it. D is definitely not the answer.

Option A looks good to me. Why would we want to give the user read-only access when we need them to configure the account?
