Hello! Thank you very much for this post. It is super helpful.

There may be a step missing, however. When installing the load balancer stuff with helm, I was getting an error until I ran a command to add the repo for eks.

I would past the exact command in but it's claiming my account is too new to post links. Anyway, thanks again!

Thank you for this... I have worked in the past to get onto AWS EKS, this helps. I am having an issue though, I get the EKS build with nodes, but when I run the Kustomization towards the bottom I have an error: error: resource mapping not found for name: "awx" namespace: "awx" from ".": no matches for kind "AWX" in version "awx.ansible.com/v1beta1" ensure CRDs are installed first.

The full output is this: kubectl apply -k . namespace/awx created customresourcedefinition.apiextensions.k8s.io/awxbackups.awx.ansible.com created customresourcedefinition.apiextensions.k8s.io/awxrestores.awx.ansible.com created customresourcedefinition.apiextensions.k8s.io/awxs.awx.ansible.com created serviceaccount/awx-operator-controller-manager created role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/awx-operator-awx-manager-role created role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/awx-operator-leader-election-role created clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/awx-operator-metrics-reader created clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/awx-operator-proxy-role created rolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/awx-operator-awx-manager-rolebinding created rolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/awx-operator-leader-election-rolebinding created clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/awx-operator-proxy-rolebinding created configmap/awx-operator-awx-manager-config created secret/awx-admin-password created secret/awx-postgres-configuration created service/awx-operator-controller-manager-metrics-service created deployment.apps/awx-operator-controller-manager created error: resource mapping not found for name: "awx" namespace: "awx" from ".": no matches for kind "AWX" in version "awx.ansible.com/v1beta1" ensure CRDs are installed first Can you assist with this?

Thank you.

As you can see the PostGRES is pending doesn't go live.

Looks like the PostGRES pod is not populated.

To follow up. I have encountered more issues. I found that operator does not like Kubernetes version 1.23, I.22 works so that is an upgrade from what you have. In the awx-clb-without-tls.yaml file you need information about the ingress path as you have in the awx-ingress.yaml file, after creating and then destroying the CFT's multiple times, I got past the issues, I got an error for duplicate security groups, removed all lingering security groups. I had to add 2 tags to the subnets that I was using. I finally have the web address for the ingress, but it is not active. For someone that has no Kubernetes experience, I am learning alot now.
