Adds an Amazon EKS guide under Enterprise → K8s Install, broken into three pages, plus nav wiring and a discoverability card.

Pages

  • Amazon EKS (eks/index.mdx) — cluster requirements, the two node groups (general + Sysbox), sandbox-node sizing, S3 object storage, RDS, and NLB ingress (Traefik recommended / NGINX).
  • Installing Sysbox (eks/sysbox.mdx) — node requirements, the sysbox-deploy-k8s DaemonSet install, and pointing OpenHands at it (RUNTIME_CLASS + SET_HOST_USERS).
  • DNS and TLS (eks/dns-and-tls.mdx) — external-dns (Route 53) + cert-manager (Let's Encrypt DNS-01), with a manual-setup fallback.

Also: a nested "Amazon EKS" group in docs.json and an EKS card on the K8s Install overview.

Notes

Validated

  • mint broken-links: no issues from these pages.
  • All internal links resolve; docs.json is valid JSON.
  • Node-packing figures checked in code.

Preview

Mintlify auto-previews may only build for PRs into main; if no preview link appears on this PR, run mint dev locally on the branch.

…undle notes

- Note that the no-channel install URL targets the Stable channel; non-Stable
  licenses must include the channel slug (else 'Channel not found for license')
- Add a bring-your-own-certificate values variant alongside the cert-manager one
- Document installing the preflight/support-bundle CLIs
- Note support-bundle upload prints no link; find the bundle in the portal
- Add optional STORAGE_CLASS to the runtime-api values example
- Add a troubleshooting row for bundles missing instance metadata
…bleshooting

- Drop the claim that self-signed certs break login/agent comms (chart support
  for self-signed is being explored separately)
- Remove the publicly-trusted absolute from the BYO-cert note
- Drop the Pending/no-default-storage-class row (a default storage class is
  already a stated prerequisite)
The prior example used tls.enabled: true + an ACME email, but the chart has no
tls.email key and tls.enabled: true only references a pre-existing secret — it
does not invoke cert-manager. Switch the minimal example to the validated
bring-your-own-certificate config (tls.enabled: false, tls: false on the
keycloak/runtime-api ingresses, cert terminated at the ingress controller) and
leave a slot noting a cert-manager variant will be documented separately.

Add postgresql.auth.database, databaseMigrations.createDatabases (app + runtime-api),
and litellm-helm.enabled — without these the bundled-DB path hangs at wait-for-db
and no LiteLLM deploys. Correct the 'no configuration needed' prose.
keycloak.enabled defaults false in the chart; the example configured only the
Keycloak ingress, so no Keycloak was deployed and login dead-ended with a 404
on auth.app.<domain>. Verified on a fresh KinD install: without this flag no
keycloak pod renders; with it the auth endpoints come up and the GitHub login
redirect returns 303.

The runtime-api chart defaults STORAGE_CLASS to standard-rwo, which only
exists on GKE. On any other cluster sandbox PVCs stay Pending on the
nonexistent class and every sandbox times out at startup. Verified live:
with the default, PVCs never bind; setting the cluster's storage class
makes sandboxes start. Replace the optional (and incorrect) comment with
an explicit setting.
Address PR #628 review comment: link the Replicated trial signup page
(https://install.r9.all-hands.dev/openhands/signup) in the license Note
on the Helm-based installation page.

Update the Helm-based installer prerequisites to require Helm v4 or later
(prerequisite list and troubleshooting table), aligning with the embedded
cluster's Helm version and Helm v3's upcoming EOL.

… path

Address review feedback: add a Warning to the K8s install page clarifying
that the embedded PostgreSQL is for proof-of-concept/evaluation only (not
production), that we recommend an external database, and that there is no
officially supported migration path from the embedded instance to an
external one.
