doctl kubernetes cluster node-pool create <cluster-id|cluster-name> [flags]
c
Creates a new node pool for the specified cluster. The command requires values for the --name, --size, and --count flags to create a node pool. You can also specify that you’d like to enable autoscaling and set minimum and maximum node poll sizes.
The following example creates a node pool named example-pool in a cluster named example-cluster:
doctl kubernetes cluster node-pool create example-cluster --name example-pool --size s-1vcpu-2gb --count 3 --taint "key1=value1:NoSchedule" --taint "key2:NoExecute"
