Description
Describe the bug
The [start_all.sh](./kic-reference-architectures/pulumi/aws/start_all.sh ) script fails at the add_kube_config() function when the user has multiple k8 custom contexts. This fails on the CLI as well as in the script.
$ aws --profile f5 --region us-west-2 eks update-kubeconfig --name XXX

'name'
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Create multiple contexts that are pointed to by the KUBECONFIG variable
- Attempt to update the kubeconfig using the
aws eks update-kubeconfigcommand. - The command will fail.
- Unset the
KUBECONFIGvariable. - Re-run the command
- The command will succeed and write to the default KUBECONFIG (
~/.kube/config)
Expected behavior
The information for the new cluster should be added to the currently active context file.
