[QUESTION] aws_node_termination_handler and karpenter

[FernandoMiguel]

Please describe your question here

How does aws_node_termination_handler addon and karpenter work? I see in the code at https://github.com/aws-ia/terraform-aws-eks-blueprints/blob/793504a213662333a8e2e561e23fef2f650d82ff/modules/kubernetes-addons/main.tf#L122 that if ASG or karpenter are enabled , this addon can be made enabled. but while ASG do use , well...., ASG, karpenter nodes are individual instances.

Does it require us to manually tag those instances by adding this tag? https://github.com/aws-ia/terraform-aws-eks-blueprints/blob/793504a213662333a8e2e561e23fef2f650d82ff/modules/kubernetes-addons/aws-node-termination-handler/main.tf#L24-L27

I modified the NTH to match the resiliency section this blog entry, when karpenter is enabled. It should not need tagging.
