Hi guys, I am creating a cluster with fargate on aws, with awsx and eks libraries. The issue is that my deployment is not deploying on fargate. I think it might be due to the namespace of fargate. If one create the cluster like this:

const cluster = new eks.Cluster( clusterName,
  {
    fargate: true,
    vpcId: vpc.id,
    publicSubnetIds: vpc.publicSubnetIds,
    privateSubnetIds: vpc.privateSubnetIds,
    deployDashboard: false,
    nodeAssociatePublicIpAddress: false,
    providerCredentialOpts: {},
    skipDefaultNodeGroup: true, ...

then fargate use the default namespace? Is there a way to access the fargateProfile when creating the fargate profile with

fargate: true

?

So, the cluster comes up ok and the

kube-system

services (e.g. coredns) comes up ok? But then when you create a deployment it doesn’t show up at all? Or does it hang waiting for pods? Regarding the fargate profile, when you look at the EKS cluster in the AWS console and go to the Configuration tab and the Compute tab you should see the profile at the bottom of the page

coredns is showing but it indicates 0/2 pods and the deployment I create is not showing. Here the pulumi logs:

+  kubernetes:core/v1:Service my-app-svc creating [1/3] Finding Pods to direct traffic to

208 +  kubernetes:apps/v1:Deployment my-app-dep creating [1/2] Waiting for app ReplicaSet be marked available

209 +  kubernetes:apps/v1:Deployment my-app-dep creating [1/2] Waiting for app ReplicaSet be marked available (0/2 Pods available)

210 +  kubernetes:apps/v1:Deployment my-app-dep creating warning: [MinimumReplicasUnavailable] Deployment does not have minimum availability.

211 +  kubernetes:apps/v1:Deployment my-app-dep creating warning: [ProgressDeadlineExceeded] ReplicaSet "my-app-dep-bbd5g6ev-c88759cb6" has timed out progressing.

I don’t know how useful this is, but I just ran into this the other day where coredns was stuck waiting for pods. Originally, I was creating the VPC in using the

aws

package and must have been missing something because when I switched to using the

awsx

package it set things up correctly. I have not gone back to figure out what I was doing wrong yet since I’m focused on more eks-related topics right now. I think it was because I forgot to set up the NAT or routing correctly for the private subnets. That all said, once coredns was launching correctly my app deployments launched fine.

ok thanks @witty-candle-66007 I’ll check this
