Stop cluster from Rancher

Hello,

I am new to Rancher. I have provisioned AWS cluster with one node through Rancher. How can I stop it without deleting the same?

To my knowledge there’s no method to “stop” an EKS cluster or a Kubernetes cluster. The best you could probably do it scale the worker node count to 0. You would lose your running applications, but not the cluster.

eksctl get cluster
eksctl get nodegroup --cluster CLUSTERNAME
eksctl scale nodegroup --cluster CLUSTERNAME --name NODEGROUPNAME --nodes NEWSIZE
