Hello,

To address the issue

Check Image Pull Secrets:

• Ensure you have configured imagePullSecrets correctly in your pod specification to authenticate with the private ghcr.io registry.

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: your-pod-name
spec:
  containers:
  - name: your-container-name
    image: ghcr.io/aura-nw/long-campaign-be:euphoria_6cf3d53
  imagePullSecrets:
  - name: your-secret-name

Create a secret with your GitHub Container Registry credentials:

kubectl create secret docker-registry your-secret-name \
  --docker-server=ghcr.io \
  --docker-username=your-username \
  --docker-password=your-personal-access-token

Check Node Resources:

• Ensure your worker nodes have sufficient resources (CPU, memory, network bandwidth) to pull the images efficiently. Insufficient resources can cause delays in pulling large images.
• Monitor node status and resource usage:

kubectl describe nodes

• Ensure VPC, subnets, and security groups are properly configured for internet access and efficient image pulling.

These steps should help in resolving the issue with image pulling in your EKS cluster.

Hello,

When pulling images from a private registry, use imagePullSecrets in the workload manifest to specify the credentials. These credentials authenticate with the private registry, allowing the pod to pull images from the specified private repository.
