After running a pipeline job in Jenkins that runs in my k8s cluster

Answer 1

This error might be due to not creating the label ‘jenkins-eks-pod’ on the jenkins server.
To create a label on the jenkins server :
go to manage jenkins > Manage nodes and Clouds > labels and then enter
the label name.
Post creating this label try to run the job and check if it works.
