Identify or Create Compartments for Devices

A compartment is a collection of related resources. Compartments are a fundamental component of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for organizing and isolating your cloud resources. You use them to separate resources for the purposes of controlling access (using policies), and isolation (separating the resources for one project or business unit from another).

For Roving Edge Infrastructure, at least one compartment is needed for a Roving Edge node.

1. Create or select a compartment based on how you use compartments to control access to resources.

   If you plan to create a new compartment, sign in to OCI and use the Oracle Cloud Console, or use the OCI CLI or OCI API to create the compartment in your tenancy.

   For an introduction to compartments, and for instructions for managing compartments, see Managing Compartments.

   If you don't have permissions to create or select compartments, contact your tenancy administrator.
