EKS 1.33 with NVIDIA GPU Node - failed to provision g5.2xlarge

Based on the error messages you're encountering, there are two main issues:

1. Insufficient Capacity Error: The error "UnfulfillableCapacity - Unable to fulfill capacity due to your request configuration" indicates that AWS doesn't currently have enough available capacity of g5.2xlarge instances to fulfill your request in the region/availability zone you're trying to use. This is a common issue with specialized GPU instance types like g5.2xlarge, which have more limited availability compared to general-purpose instances.

2. Instances Failed to Join Kubernetes Cluster: This secondary error would only be relevant if the instances could actually launch, which they currently cannot due to the capacity issue.

Here are some recommendations to resolve these issues:

For the capacity issue:

• Try launching the instance in a different Availability Zone within your region
• Consider using an alternative GPU instance type that might have more available capacity, such as g4dn instances
• If your workload allows, try using a different region where capacity might be available
• For critical workloads, you might want to explore using Capacity Reservations

For GPU setup in EKS:

• Ensure you're using the correct AMI (which you are - the EKS optimized accelerated AMI)
• When using the AL2023 Accelerated AMI, note that while it includes the NVIDIA GPU driver, you'll need to install the NVIDIA Kubernetes Device Plugin separately (typically via a DaemonSet) unless you're using eksctl which can handle this automatically
• If using eksctl, it will detect GPU instance types and install the NVIDIA Kubernetes device plugin automatically

The primary issue you need to solve first is the capacity limitation. Once you can successfully launch the instances, you can address any remaining configuration issues related to the GPU setup in your EKS cluster.
