Root privileges requirements
You need root privileges (sudo su) to deploy Automation Suite. The following sections describe the specific components that require root access and why they require it.
The following components require root access to configure the machines to install Automation Suite. This is required because the default partitioning structure on RHEL machines is not suitable for installing Kubernetes. All of these components are required on all nodes.
Component |
Why is root required to execute? |
---|---|
parted |
Required to update the partition structure. |
pvresize |
Required to resize physical volume. |
lvextend |
Required to extend logical volume. |
xfs_growfs |
Required to expand an XFS filesystem. |
mkfs.ext4 |
Required to build a Linux filesystem. |
mount |
Required to mount a filesystem. |
The following components are required to execute the Automation Suite installer at the time of installation. All Linux components require root to be installed.

Server and Agent |
Required to provide the server daemon for the Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) protocol, as well as the utility programs used to manage it. |
iscsid |
Server and Agent |
Required to implement the control path for iSCSI protocol for distributing disk access using SCSI commands sent over Internet Protocol networks, plus some management facilities. |
