Assigning a Cloudera Observability On-Premises cluster user access role

Steps for assigning a Cluster User access role to your Cloudera Observability On-Premises users.

Describes how to assign a Cloudera Observability On-Premises Role Based Access (RBAC) role for a cluster user.

In a supported web browser log in to Cloudera Observability On-Premises as a user that has been granted the System Admin access role.
1. In the URL field of a supported web browser, enter the Cloudera Observability On-Premises URL and press Enter.
2. When the Cloudera Observability On-Premises Log in page opens, enter your Cloudera Observability On-Premises user name and password access credentials.
3. Click Log in.
  The Cloudera Observability On-Premises landing page opens.
Verify that you have enabled role based access in Cloudera Manager. For more information, click the Related Information link below.
Open the Access Management feature, by entering access at the end of the Cloudera Observability On-Premises UI's URL. For example, http://obs_console_server_hostname:port_number/observability/index.html#/access
Where,
- obs_console_server_hostname is the host name of the machine on which the Console server is installed in your Cloudera Observability On-Premises cluster.
- port_number is the port number for the Console Server.
note
At this time, after the role based access property is enabled in Cloudera Manager the Access Management link is not appearing on the Cloudera Observability On-Premises UI's main navigation panel. This step's manual edit of the URL is a temporary workaround.
In the Access Management page, click New Cluster Policy.
The Create Cluster Policy page opens.
Do one or more of the following:
1. In the Groups field, enter the name of the LDAP group account whose users will be assigned this cluster policy's access role.
2. In the Users field, enter the user name or user names who will be assigned this cluster policy's access role.
From the Assign Roles list, select Cluster User.
From the Cluster list, select the name of the cluster that will be assigned to this policy’s access role.
Optional: Enable the user or users defined in this cluster policy to view executed workloads from other users or executed workloads from a pool by doing the following:
1. In the Users field, enter the user name or user names whose jobs and queries can be viewed by the user or users defined in this cluster policy.
2. In the Pools field, enter the pool name or pool names whose jobs and queries can be viewed by the user or users defined in this cluster policy.
Click Create.

note
Cloudera Observability On-Premises will take at least 60 minutes to assign the access role to the user, users, and/or groups provided in the Cluster Policy.

The Successfully created access policy message appears when the Cluster Policy is created and the policy is displayed in the Access Management’s home page.
