I have installed eksctl and moved to the path you have mentioned ..but I am gettin -bash : eksctl :command not found error.how to solve this error?

[@awsdevopsniche11]

try these steps again and see if it works
Step 1. curl --silent --location "github.com/weaveworks/eksctl/releases/latest/download/eksctl_$(uname -s)_amd64.tar.gz" | tar xz -C /tmp
Step 2. mv /tmp/eksctl /usr/local/bin

[@kiranbhulokam6712]

Thanks for the detailed steps.
I have installed the EKS cluster as per the video and able to run k8s command with my IAM user only (With cluster creation user) but not run the k8s command with another IAM user, betting below error
User error: You must be logged in to the server (the server has asked for the client to provide credentials), Can you help me, thanks
in advance :)

[@awsdevopsniche11]

It sounds like your kubectl may not be configured properly for Amazon EKS, or the IAM principal credentials that you're using don't map to a Kubernetes RBAC user with sufficient permissions in your Amazon EKS cluster. You could try, as the cluster administrator, granting the appropriate level of RBAC privileges to individual Kubernetes users. Check the below link and let me know if it helps:

Without load balancer we can not access the application?

[@awsdevopsniche11]

Apart from Load balancer, application can be accessed via cluster IP and Node Port.
ClusterIP exposes the service on a cluster's internal IP address. NodePort exposes the service on each node’s IP address at a static port.
Please refer the below link for more details:

How lb is getting created without aws lb controller

[@awsdevopsniche11]

Hi, Load Balancer is getting created as we are using Load balancer "Service Type". Below is a command that is exposing the application to the outside world via load balancer.
kubectl expose deployment tomcat-deployment --port=8080 --type=LoadBalancer

Hey no practical.approach how come you are running the eks on t2.micro computation . It is practically not feasible at all.

[@awsdevopsniche11]

hi, instance type i used was t2.small, not t2.micro.
