Select 2An organization is planning to deploy a VMware Cloud on AWS Software-Defined Data Center (SDDC). The administrator is tasked with ensuring the appropriate account access and privileges are configured before starting the deployment. Which account access and privileges are required for successful deployment?
- A
VMware Cloud account with Organization Owner access

AWS account with AdministratorAccess IAM policy
- C
VMware Cloud account with CloudAdmin role
- D
AWS account with ReadOnlyAccess IAM policy
- E
VMware Cloud account with Developer role
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B
Explanation
To successfully deploy a VMware Cloud on AWS SDDC, the VMware Cloud account needs to have Organization Owner access to manage the SDDC deployment process and associated billing. Additionally, the AWS account must have the AdministratorAccess IAM policy to create and manage the required AWS resources (e.g., VPCs, subnets, ENIs) during the deployment. Other roles like CloudAdmin or Developer are insufficient for the deployment process.
- A. Correct.
Correct. The Organization Owner role in VMware Cloud provides the necessary permissions to deploy and manage SDDCs, including billing and subscription management.
- B. Correct.
Correct. The AWS account requires the AdministratorAccess IAM policy to create and manage the necessary resources, such as VPCs, subnets, and ENIs, during the SDDC deployment.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect. While the CloudAdmin role provides permissions for managing workloads and resources within the SDDC, it is not sufficient for deploying the SDDC itself.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. The ReadOnlyAccess IAM policy is insufficient for SDDC deployment as it does not allow creating or modifying AWS resources.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect. The Developer role in VMware Cloud is limited to workload management and does not have permissions for SDDC deployment.
