Error deploying KubeCluster as Tenant Administrator

[CrazyVolnay]

Hi,

I'm new and still learning to use CSE :)
Everything is up to date and fresh install :
VSphere 7.0.2
VCD 10.3
CSE, Container Service Extension for VMware vCloud Director, version 3.1.0

I've been able to setup and deploy Kube Clusters within the Organization / VDC definied in the config file loggued as Tnant Organization Admin.
I can also deploy Kube Cluster in any Organization / VDC loggued as system admin.
But I cannot deploy Kube Cluster loggued as a tenant organization admin. I've note the user had to have the right 'Catalog: View Published Catalogs', which is not present in the Organization Administrator. Instead I have 'View Private and Shared Catalogs within Current Organization' and 'View Shared Catalogs from Other Organizations' :

When I reach Kubernetes Container Clusters loggued as admin tenant, I first receive an uncommon error error :

And when I end the wizzard I receive the following error :

In server debug log, here the event thrown when creating the cluster :

Thanks for your feedback

Looks like user doesn't have enough rights.
Please publish the "cse:nativeCluster entitlement" right bundle to the tenant org and assign at least "cse:native cluster EDIT right" to the tenant user. And then reattempt the cluster creation

[CrazyVolnay]

It's already setup as advised.
The Right Bundle is published to our demo tenant :

In the Demo tenant, a role is setup to provide such rights :

And the role is assigned to the user :

But the user can't deploy a kubernetes cluster :

Thanks for using CSE.
Can you please check if these steps work:

1. Please clone vApp Author/Org admin role from tenant (/tenant/DEMO_ORG) portal. (you have used provider portal to create global role as in your screenshot).
2. Add extra rights(CSE:NATIVECLUSTER etc) that are required as you did to this role.
3. Create a user in the demo org and assign the role created in step-2 to this user.
4. Login as the tenant user created in step-3 and then try creating the cluster.
5. If possible, start with clean log file by stop server, clean log , start server.
6. This will create log files fresh. If this fails, we will require log files uploaded (cse-server-debug.log, cloud-api-wire.log)

@CrazyVolnay

Let us know if the steps above resolved the issue for you.

Hi,

I tried to follow advised steps loggued as tenant admin account, but while cloning the VAPP Author role, I cannot see cse rights :

As you can see below, the CSE bundle right is properly published to at least my demo tenant :

The demo org tenant admin has the default Organization Administrator role :

May the tenant admin have more specific rights to see cse rights ?

[sakthisunda]

@CrazyVolnay

Tenant admin with published cse:nativeCluster rights should be able to see the rights when they clone and edit the rights

To reproduce, I followed the steps you tried as follows:

1. Login as sys admin: I created an org DEMO_ORG with an user demoadmin (org administrator)
2. I published the rights: cse:nativeCluster Entitlement to DEMO_ORG
3. Login as tenant admin: demoadmin.(https://vmc-vcloud-dhcp-168-149.eng.vmware.com/tenant). Refer my screenshots for ensuring the login as demoadmin.
4. Cloned the vapp Author role: Please check the browser address: https://<host_url>/tenant/DEMO_ORG/administration/access-control/roles
5. Modified selected rights : I could see CSE native Cluster rights under the section: OTHER
6. I am able to see those rights

My guess is that the persona who logged into may be someone:

• who is org-admin who did not get the cse:Native cluster bundle rights.
• org-admin who is not an user of DEMO_ORG

Screenshots:

Verified the login is demoadmin(org administrator)

Let me know, if this helps.
