I am new to Kubernetes and Influx so there is a big chance that there are things that I just didn't understood correct .
I managed to deploy influxDB and Telegraf to my cluster in EKS (AWS) but now I am trying to edit the Telegraf configuration so that I can get some input data from Kafka and store them to InfluxDB .
My problem is that I cannot edit any file in the system or create a new configuration file . For example when I try to edit the config file
vi /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf
I get the Read-only file system error .
I read that the systems are read-only in the newest Kubernetes version but there has to be some workaround to solve this issue.
My Kubernetes version is :

$ kubectl version
Client Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"14", GitVersion:"v1.14.7", GitCommit:"8fca2ec50a6133511b771a11559e24191b1aa2b4", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2019-09-18T14:47:22Z", GoVersion:"go1.12.9", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"windows/amd64"}
Server Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"14+", GitVersion:"v1.14.6-eks-5047ed", GitCommit:"5047edce664593832e9b889e447ac75ab104f527", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2019-08-21T22:32:40Z", GoVersion:"go1.12.9", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"linux/amd64"}

and I obviously run everything with admin rights.
Any help would be appreciated.
