<p>I initially setup a cluster with the <code>kube-up.sh</code> utility on AWS. Now I ran out of capacity and I'm looking for a simple way to extend my cluster with more nodes. </p>

<p>Is there a 'simple' way to add more nodes to a running cluster on AWS? I've been reading all the docs but cannot seem to find a way. </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>If you used kube-up, your minions should be launched into an auto-scaling group, and you should just be able to change the size of that auto-scaling group.</p>

<p>This question is a few months old, so I'm not sure whether this was the case back in July, but it should definitely be the case now.</p>

<p>I'm also working on launching the master into an auto-scaling group, so that if the master dies it is automatically restated, but that is a little more complicated because of the persistent disk.  But hopefully I'll make 1.1!</p>
