Retrieving a Compute Cluster's OCID

If you don't already have the OCID of a compute cluster, you can retrieve a list of compute clusters in a compartment with their corresponding OCIDs.

Required IAM Policy

To use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, you must be granted security access in a policy  by an administrator. This access is required whether you're using the Console or the REST API with an SDK, CLI, or other tool. If you get a message that you don't have permission or are unauthorized, verify with your administrator what type of access you have and which compartment  to work in.

For administrators: To allow users to do all things with compute clusters in all compartments, write the following policy:

Allow group ComputeClusterUsers to manage compute-clusters in tenancy

You must also allow users to create instances in cluster networks. For a typical policy, see Let users launch compute instances.

Using the Console

  1. Open the navigation menu and click Compute. Under Compute, click Compute Clusters.

  2. Click the compute cluster that you're interested in.

    The OCID is displayed on the Compute cluster details page.

Using the API

Use the ListComputeClusters operation to retrieve a list of compute clusters with their corresponding OCIDs.

Using the CLI

To list the compute clusters and retrieve the OCID of the compute cluster, use the compute-cluster list command:

oci compute compute-cluster list --compartment-id <compartment_OCID>

For information about using the CLI, see Command Line Interface (CLI).
