Creating an IAM database username
To create an IAM username:
- Enable IAM DB authentication on the RDS DB instance.
- Create Database user using master login (rds_iam
For MySQL create the username using master login (rds_iam):
mysql --protocol=tcp --host=instance_fqdn --user=admin -p --port=3306
CREATE USER iamuser IDENTIFIED WITH AWSAuthenticationPlugin as 'RDS';
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, RELOAD, PROCESS, REFERENCES, INDEX, ALTER, SHOW DATABASES, LOCK TABLES, CREATE VIEW, SHOW VIEW, CREATE ROUTINE, ALTER ROUTINE, EVENT, TRIGGER ON *.* '<db_user>'@'%';
For PostgreSQL create the user under server.
psql -h instance_fqdn -U postgres
CREATE USER iamuser WITH LOGIN;
GRANT rds_iam TO iamuser;
ALTER ROLE iamuser WITH LOGIN CREATEDB;
GRANT rds_superuser TO iamuser;
- Attach the RDS policy to the IAM role attached to the NetBackup media server.
