Snapshotting BottleRocket Data Volume

[misterek]

I feel like I'm doing something wrong here. Trying to replicate: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/containers/reduce-container-startup-time-on-amazon-eks-with-bottlerocket-data-volume/ (manually for now)

I'm stuck on step 1. I'm launching a new node in the same subnet as other BottleRocket nodes are running in (so I'm confident that the networking is fine). I have a Role that has SSM Managed instance Core and ECR Read (same as in the tutorial). Additionally, for testing, ingress and egress are wide open.

No matter what I seem to do, I always get:

` Starting Generate additional settings for Kubernetes...

[ 303.517564] pluto[1354]: Timed out retrieving private DNS name from EC2: deadline has elapsed

[FAILED] Failed to start Generate additional settings for Kubernetes.

`

I've also added standalone-mode = true to the settings. Does there happen to be some other step I'm missing by chance? My settings are just standalone-mode, and enabling the control and admin containers. I have a feeling there's something I'm just missing though.

Hey @misterek, how are you provisioning your clusters? Keep in mind that you must also attach the following policies to your role:

• AmazonEKSWorkerNodePolicy
• AmazonEKS_CNI_Policy

Otherwise this call will fail:
