Deployment of driver fails on GKE: assumes that the creator is cluster-admin

[saad-ali]

From Leonid:

So, apparently, deploy_driver.sh example under  gcp-compute-persistent-disk-csi-driver assumes that the creator is cluster-admin, which doesn't looks to be the case for GKE-gcloud-connect.
Manually creating relevant binding:
kubectl create clusterrolebinding cluster-admin-binding   --clusterrole cluster-admin   --user $(gcloud config get-value account)

seems to be enough to make the deployment work.

I verified his recommendation got me past this issue.

Ah I think this is the issue that in order to create a clusterrole, you need to be cluster admin, and gke doesn't map the Kubernetes admin role to your IAM account by default.
