Description To Hung Sze 2021-05-17 20:17:14 UTC
Document URL: 
It is not clear what the purpose of the table of permissions below is:
https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.5/installing/installing_gcp/installing-gcp-account.html#installation-gcp-permissions_installing-gcp-account


Section Number and Name: 
Creating a service account in GCP
Table 3. GCP service account permissions



Describe the issue: 
As it is written now, it is not clear if the entries in the table is for Installer or after-install operations or both.


Suggestions for improvement: 
If the current table is for installer, add a description.
If a separate table is required for "minimum permission levels required for after-installation operations" is needed, please add one.

The table "GCP service account permissions" is present for all OCP versions (4.5-4.10) and need some clarification on the purpose of the table.

Comment 8 To Hung Sze 2022-04-11 13:15:53 UTC
This is in good hands now.
I am clearing "need info".

Per Jianli Wei on the PR (https://github.com/openshift/openshift-docs/pull/44356#issuecomment-1429104599), I'm closing this issue.

The work on this engineering epic will provide additional clarity: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/CORS-1871
