Encountering the following error in your Kubernetes EKS setup?

This error occurs when no Add-ons for Amazon EBS CSI Driver are installed. If you have already installed ‘Amazon EBS CSI Driver’ and it is in a degraded state, you must upgrade that Add-on. If you have not installed the Amazon EBS CSI Driver Add-On, you must install it. 

 

Solution:


1. Install or Upgrade Amazon EBS CSI Driver Add-On:

If you haven’t installed the Amazon EBS CSI Driver Add-On, navigate to your EKS Kubernetes cluster > go to Add-ons, and install it. If it’s already installed but in a degraded state, upgrade the Add-on.

 

 

2. Update the Amazon EBS CSI Driver:

Ensure that you have the latest version of the Amazon EBS CSI Driver. Keeping it up-to-date can resolve compatibility issues and improve performance.


3. Cluster Add-ons Verification:

Double-check that the required Add-ons for EBS CSI Driver are correctly configured in your cluster. Sometimes, misconfigurations can lead to mounting issues.
