Created an EKS Cluster using Add cluster from Rancher version (2.4.4)  
Made VPC and subnets using  
[Cloudformation Template](https://amazon-eks.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/cloudformation/2020-06-10/amazon-eks-vpc-sample.yaml)

EKS cluster got created but only seeing Worker nodes.

When doing kubectl from launch shell - Closed Code: 1006

On AWS side things look normal

When enabled the monitoring nothing shows up on the grafana dashboards and it complains metrics are not available as I dont see any workload under kub-system that says metricserver

So what might be going on?

I’m feeling the same `Closed Code: 1006` pain. 😒
