37.3 Excluding or Including an AWS IAM Role

Discovered IAM Role resources for a target AWS platform are automatically included in the list of resources available for migrations. You can use the Exclude action on the IAM Roles tab in the Platform dialog to hide specified IAM roles in migration menus. The excluded resource appears dimmed in the Platform Associations list. Excluded resources do not appear in other dialogs for planning.

NOTE:For enhanced tracking, workload associations to an excluded IAM role are not available for the IAM Role resource.

To exclude a IAM Role resource for a target AWS platform:

  1. In the Web Interface toolbar, select Platforms, select the platform, then click Edit.

  2. Under Associations, select the IAM Roles tab.

  3. Select the appropriate IAM role, click Exclude.

  4. If workloads are associated with the IAM role, you are prompted to confirm the exclusion. Click Yes to continue, or click No to cancel.

You can use the Include action to enable an excluded IAM role. Including the previously excluded resource does not reinstate any prior associations it had before you excluded it.
