How to enable PodNodeSelector admission controller in EKS version 1.15

Question

Can somebody point in the direction on how to enable PodNodeSelector admission controller in EKS version 1.15 ?

I'm trying to achieve what is explained in this link, but how to do this in Managed Kubernetes like EKS where you don't have access to control plane components.

Answer 1

In fact: You cannot enable PodNodeSelector in EKS.

The fact that EKS is a Managed Kubernetes solution denies any reconfiguration of control plane components. That's why you cannot enable PodNodeSelector.

There is an official documentation about enabled admission controllers in EKS: Aws.amazon.com: EKS: Userguide: Platform-versions

There is ongoing feature request for PodNodeSelector here (as well as some workarounds): Github.com: AWS: Issue: 304.

There is an answer on StackOverflow with similar question How to enable admission controllers in EKS
