What were you trying to accomplish?
I am upgrading the various cluster nodegroups to version 1.33 from 1.32.
What happened?
When I run the usual command to update nodegroups I get the error

How to reproduce it?
I think it is enough to have nodegroups v 1.32 and try to upgrade to v 1.33, there is no custom configuration implemented to specify.
