About IAM Policies for Disaster Recovery

You can define Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies for Disaster Recovery (DR) either for an individual resource type or for the entire family.

Refer to the How Policies Work guide to know more about general concepts of the IAM policies before defining the IAM policies for DR.

You can define IAM policies in either of the following two ways:
  • Define policies for an individual resource type
