AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM)
If you are the administrator setting up Amazon Web Services (AWS) groups and user
accounts, each user needs particular policies for using MATLAB Distributed Computing
Server EC2 clusters. You can define a group of users, and attach the policies to that
group. The required policies are:
• EC2 Full Access
• IAM Full Access
• S3 Full Access
• SNS Full Access
• SQS Full Access
• Cloud Formation Full Access
The following procedure applies all the necessary policies to your user group.
1
Log in to the Amazon Web Service management console.
2
Click Services > IAM to navigate to the IAM dashboard.
3
In the left pane, click Policies. (If you then see a page with Get Started, click that.)
4
Click Create Policy at the top of the page.
5
Select Create Your Own Policy.
6
Specify a policy name. For example, CloudCenterUserPolicy.
