Chaos agent installation access requirements

This topic lists the Kubernetes chaos agent installation access requirement for discovery and all types of faults.

Resource	Modes (Scope of chaos agent)	Permissions required	Use
pod	Namespaced, Cluster	[create, delete, get, list, patch, update, deletecollection]	Manage transient pods created to perform chaos.
events	Namespaced, Cluster	[create, get, list, patch, update]	Generate and manage chaos events.
secrets	Namespaced, Cluster	[get, update, patch, create]	To read authentication information (cluster ID and access-keys), configuration tunables.
ConfigMaps	Namespaced, Cluster	[get, list, create, patch, update, watch, delete]	Configuration tunables and leader-election.
pods/log	Namespaced, Cluster	[get, list, watch]	Track execution logs.
jobs	Namespaced, Cluster	[create, delete, get, list, deletecollection]	Chaos experiments are launched as Kubernetes jobs.
pods/exec, pods/eviction	Namespaced, Cluster	[get, list, create]	For creating and managing to execute commands inside the target container. Used in some experiments and command probe.
services	Namespaced, Cluster	[get, list]	Generate chaos metrics. Watch or probe application service metrics for health.
deployments, statefulsets	Namespaced, Cluster	[get, list, patch, update, delete]	For asset discovery and pod-autoscaler fault.
replicasets, replicationcontrollers, daemonsets, deploymentconfigs, rollouts	Namespaced, Cluster	[get, list]	For asset discovery of available resources on the cluster so that you can target them with chaos experiments.
networkpolicies	Namespaced, Cluster	[create, delete, list, get]	Cause chaos through network partitions.
nodes	Cluster-scoped only	[patch, get, list, update, watch]	Filter or isolate chaos targets to specific nodes. Subject nodes to chaos (only in cluster-scope).
namespaces	Cluster-scoped only	[get, list, watch]	For asset discovery to list the namespaces(only in cluster-scope).
chaosengines, chaosexperiments, chaosresults, chaosschedules, chaosengines/finalizers	Namespaced, Cluster	[create, delete, get, list, patch, update]	Lifecycle management of chaos custom resources in CE.
customresourcedefinitions	Cluster-scoped only	[create, delete, get, list, patch, update]	Lifecycle management of chaos custom resources in CE.
leases	Namespaced, Cluster	[get, create, list, update, delete]	Enable high availability of chaos custom controllers via leader elections.
workflows, workflows/finalizers, workflowtemplates, workflowtemplates/finalizers cronworkflows, cronworkflows/finalizers,	Namespaced, Cluster	[create, delete, get, list, patch, update, watch]	Lifecycle management of chaos custom resources in workflow controller.
clusterworkflowtemplates, clusterworkflowtemplates/finalizers	Cluster-scoped only	[create, delete, get, list, patch, update, watch]	Lifecycle management of chaos custom resources in workflow controller.
workflowtasksets, workflowartifactgctasks, workflowtaskresults	Namespaced, Cluster	[get, list, watch, deletecollection]	Lifecycle management of chaos custom resources in workflow controller.
