<p>Im deploying EKS cluster and configuring the managed node groups so that we can have master and worker nodes .
following this doc :
<a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/cni-iam-role.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/cni-iam-role.html</a></p>
<p>while running this command :</p>
<pre><code>kubectl get pods -n kube-system -l k8s-app=aws-node
</code></pre>
<p>I dont see any POD with that label . dont know why ?
Is it something due to missing configuration OR I missed something while deploying EKS cluster</p>
<p>please suggest</p>
<p><strong>UPDATE 1</strong></p>
<pre><code>kubectl describe daemonset aws-node -n kube-system
</code></pre>
<p>output</p>

<p>kubectl get nodes command says No resources found</p>

<p>No pod will be running if you don't have any worker node. Easiest way to add worker node is on the AWS console, goto Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service and click on your cluster, goto &quot;Compute&quot; tab and select the node group, click &quot;Edit&quot; and change &quot;Desired size&quot; to &gt; 1.</p>
