Error creating cluster using eks anywhere

Question

I am trying to create a local cluster on a centos7 machine using eks anywhere. However I am getting below error. Please let me know if I am missing anything? Here is the link I am following to create the cluster. I have also attached the cluster create yaml file

Link: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/amazon-eks-anywhere-now-generally-available-to-create-and-manage-kubernetes-clusters-on-premises/

Error: Error: failed to create cluster: error waiting for external etcd for workload cluster to be ready: error executing wait: error: timed out waiting for the condition on clusters/dev-cluster

clustercreate yaml file

The default spec will look for external etcd. To test it locally remove the externalEtcdConfiguration:

apiVersion: anywhere.eks.amazonaws.com/v1alpha1
kind: Cluster
metadata:
  name: dev-cluster
spec:
  clusterNetwork:
    cni: cilium
    pods:
      cidrBlocks:
      - 192.168.0.0/16
    services:
      cidrBlocks:
      - 10.96.0.0/12
  controlPlaneConfiguration:
    count: 1
  datacenterRef:
    kind: DockerDatacenterConfig
    name: dev-cluster
  kubernetesVersion: "1.21"
  workerNodeGroupConfigurations:
  - count: 1
