Supported Configurations

The following instance and volume configurations are supported for utilization reporting (Sensor and Autoscaler) and for autoscaling (AutoScaler).

	Utilization Reporting	Autoscaling
Hypervisor	All	Nitro
Instance size	All	≥ xlarge recommended
Volume types	All	gp2, gp3
Volume size	All	from 20 GiB to 16 TiB
Boot volumes	✔️	✖️
LVM	VGs with a single PV	✖️
Multi-attach volumes	Reported utilization may be incorrect	✖️
Single- or Multi-partition volumes	Reported utilization may be incorrect	✖️

Additional Considerations

If your Kubernetes cluster contains a mix of supported and unsupported node types, see Kubernetes Node Scheduling to install AutoScaler only on the nodes that support it.

On EC2 instances, autoscaling will not be enabled for volumes that do not follow the best practice of using the filesystem UUID in the relevant /etc/fstab entry. Using the device path (e.g., /dev/sdf or /dev/nvme1n1) can result in failure to mount an autoscaling volume after reboot or mounting the volume to the wrong mountpoint, and is not supported.
