GPU nodegroup in EKS

387 views Asked by At

I am not able to create a nodegroup with GPU type using EKS, getting this error from cloud formation: [!] retryable error (Throttling: Rate exceeded status code: 400, request id: 1e091568-812c-45a5-860b-d0d028513d28) from cloudformation/DescribeStacks - will retry after delay of 988.442104ms

the resolution was to install nividia plugins on the cluster so that the cluster will identify the gpu nodes
