Missing instructions to install aws-cloud-controller-manager #4715

Open maiconrocha opened 10 months ago

/kind bug

What steps did you take and what happened: There is no instructions on the documentation https://cluster-api-aws.sigs.k8s.io/getting-started#install-a-cloud-provider to install AWS Cloud Provider, only Azure

What did you expect to happen: I was helping a customer to follow instructions from the blog post:

https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/containers/multi-cluster-management-for-kubernetes-with-cluster-api-and-argo-cd/

The blog post provides instructions to generate EC2 Cluster Template: Like for example:

clusterctl generate cluster capi-ec2 --kubernetes-version v1.28.0 --control-plane-machine-count=3 --worker-machine-count=3 > ./capi-cluster/aws-ec2/aws-ec2.yaml

When deploying the cluster, I noticed the worker nodes were provisioned, but the cluster is stuck waiting for "WaitingForAvailableMachines"

clusterctl describe cluster capi-ec2

Investigating the issue further, I found out the node has untolerated taint

Warning FailedScheduling 115s (x62 over 5h7m) default-scheduler 0/4 nodes are available: 1 node(s) had untolerated taint {node.cloudprovider.kubernetes.io/uninitialized: true}, 3 node(s) had untolerated taint {node.cluster.x-k8s.io/uninitialized: }. preemption: 0/4 nodes are available: 4 Preemption is not helpful for scheduling..

Same issue has been reported here: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api/issues/9151

The recommendation was to install: aws-cloud-controller-manager on the comment: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api/issues/9151#issuecomment-1671878672

However there is no instructions on the documentation https://cluster-api-aws.sigs.k8s.io/getting-started#install-a-cloud-provider to install AWS Cloud Provider, only Azure.

@maiconrocha looks like the aws cloud controller manager is only published as a helm package as a release asset in GitHub. https://github.com/kubernetes/cloud-provider-aws/releases/tag/helm-chart-aws-cloud-controller-manager-0.0.8

As of now, since it's not hosted somewhere it's a two step process.

$ curl -LO https://github.com/kubernetes/cloud-provider-aws/releases/download/helm-chart-aws-cloud-controller-manager-0.0.8/aws-cloud-controller-manager-0.0.8.tgz
$ helm template aws-cloud-controller-manager-0.0.8.tgz | kubectl apply -f -

Let me know if there's an alternative to handle this.
