<p>If we have a role change in the team, I read that EKS creator can NOT be transferred. Can we instead rename the creator's IAM user name via aws cli? Will that break EKS?</p>
<p>I only find ways to add new user using configmap but this configmap doesn't have the root user in there.</p>
<pre><code>$ kubectl edit configmap aws-auth --namespace kube-system
</code></pre>

<p>There is no way to transfer the root user of an EKS cluster to another IAM user. The only way to do this would be to delete the cluster and recreate it with the new IAM user as the root user.</p>
