I am trying to setup kubernetes cluster in AWS using KOPS. I configured for 3 master nodes and 6 nodes. But after launching the cluster only two master nodes are up.

I am using .k8s.local DNS instead of Purchased DNS. Below is the script that I am using for creating the cluster.

kops create cluster \
--cloud=aws \
--name=kops-cassandra-cluster-01.k8s.local \
--zones=ap-south-1a,ap-south-1b,ap-south-1c \
--master-size="t2.small" \
--master-count 3 \
--master-zones=ap-south-1a,ap-south-1b,ap-south-1c \
--node-size="t2.small" \
--ssh-public-key="kops-cassandra-cluster-01.pub" \
--state=s3://kops-cassandra-cluster-01 \
--node-count=6

After executing kops update cluster --name=kops-cassandra-cluster-01.k8s.local --state=s3://kops-cassandra-cluster-01 --yes only two master nodes are available instead of 3.

kubectl get nodes shows:

ip-172-20-90-119.ap-south-1.compute.internal   Ready    node     18m   v1.12.8

I am new to Kubernetes. Am I missing something?
