'AWS EKS Cluster & Nodes creation IAM Role
When You try and create an EKS Cluster there is a box for IAM Role, likewise when you try and create worker nodes there is a box for IAM Role. The box is blank with a pulldown menu. I am not understanding how to populate the box. I know the Polices I want for the Role, I can see existing Roles that use the policies I want, I can create Roles with the correct Policy, but they never appear as a choice in that IAM pulldown Menu... It is mandatory box, it has to be populated.
I even tried assuming the role first, but I don't have access to the root account, and when i put my login account, it says invalid account (You know the subordinate accounts you can create where you put the real account ID in the top box (which is a series of numbers) then the account name someone created for you, and your password.
How do you get that IAM Role box populated when creating a Cluster or worker node group?
Solution 1:[1]
The problem was I have a sub account, which sucks cause i am used to being root. I had to plead with the "real account" to grant me more permissions in my PowerUsers Role.
