Step 6: Configure your OCI resources

Optional step: You need to perform this task only if you switch OCI compartments or accounts.

To allow your organization's members to run CI/CD builds, you need to configure VB Studio to connect to an OCI account. Before doing that, you need to open the OCI console and set up your OCI account:
  1. Create a compartment.
  2. Create a group and a user to access the compartment.
  3. Create a policy that defines access to the compartment resources.
See Set Up the OCI Account. After creating the resources, get their details. This is described in Get the Required OCI Input Values. You'll need those details to Set Up the OCI Connection in VB Studio.

You can use the root compartment and the tenancy user that was created when the OCI account was created, but it's recommended to create a dedicated compartment to host VB Studio resources. This allows you to organize VB Studio resources better because they aren't mixed with other tenancy resources. You can also restrict users and control read-write access to the compartment without affecting other resources. To learn more about compartments, see Understanding Compartments.

Note

If you use Oracle Cloud OS Management Service (OSMS), don't configure VB Studio to use the OSMS compartment, or a compartment with an OSMS policy. OSMS compartments aren't compatible with VB Studio VM build executors.

If you aren't authorized to create and manage OCI resources, ask someone who can and have them share the details of the resources they created.
