I have been facing various different issues with one EKS cluster,
- the pods is stuck at
failedMount
, even though the PV and PVC has been inbound
state, and the PVC also shows bound to the specific pods, the EFS on aws is also in good state
## relevant error message

- pods stuck at termination state, even thought the svc, deployment, and rs has been killed, the pod still has been stuck at termination
the final solution to sort out all is to reboot the EKS worker node
