Migration with Stork on EKS

Pairing with an EKS cluster requires the following additional steps because you also need to pass in your AWS credentials which will be used to generate the IAM token.

Create a Secret with your AWS credentials

On the source cluster, create a secret in kube-system namespace with your aws credentials file:

kubectl create secret generic --from-file=$HOME/.aws/credentials -n  kube-system aws-creds

secret/aws-creds created

Pass the Secret to Stork

Mount the secret created above in the Stork deployment. Run kubectl edit deployment -n kube-system stork and make the following updates:

• Add the following under spec.template.spec:

  volumes:
  - name: aws-creds
  secret:
     secretName: aws-creds

• Add the following under spec.template.spec.containers:

  volumeMounts:
  - mountPath: /root/.aws/
  name: aws-creds
  readOnly: true

Save the changes and wait for all the Stork pods to be in running state after applying the changes:

kubectl get pods -n kube-system -l name=stork
