Trying to create cluster in aws using kube-aws up via jenkins but getting an error

Error: Error creating cluster: create volume dry-run request failed: InvalidParameterCombination: The parameter iops is not supported for gp2 volumes. status code: 400, request id:

Answer 1

The combination volumeType and Iops is wrong

You are creating a volume with volumeType GP2 with IOPS .

GP2 Does not use IOPS and there for your request is failing. Iops is only valid for Provisioned IOPS SSD (io1) volumes.

I don't see --iops in your request, so it is weird that is set to 100. Try explicitly setting it to 0 (--iops 0), or change your volumeType to io1
