Having a single account.. about documentation

[justinrlee]

Are you deploying only to EKS? Or are you also trying to deploy AWS resources directly (EC2 instances, etc.)?

If you're doing EKS, we basically treat EKS as a Kubernetes cluster and ignore the fact that it's an AWS item. You actually wanna follow this document: https://docs.armory.io/spinnaker-install-admin-guides/add-kubernetes-account/

If you wanna add AWS to deploy EC2 instances or CF or whatever, then you need to follow the https://docs.armory.io/spinnaker-install-admin-guides/add-aws-account/ document; Clouddriver doesn't directly use the permissions it has (aside from two mentioned roles) - it will always try to assume a role (even if it's the same account), so you need to tell it what role to assume.

@justinrlee Thanks for the quick feedback.

I am only targeting deploy to EKS and not to AWS in general. Of course Spinnaker is running in a separate EKS cluster (if you want to use the term Managing Cluster) from the app EKS cluster (Managed Cluster).

Will check out the https://docs.armory.io/spinnaker-install-admin-guides/add-kubernetes-account/.
