Hi @frida Welcome the community.

I suspect you will need to download the operator.yaml and edit the namespace as it is defined in the operator...

I think you will need to replace all the `namespace: elastic-system` etc in the yaml

Any specific reason you want to change the namespace? I think it will complicate things especially if you are just starting out....

I am not sure what other consequences / effects this will have later when you deploy other components.

```auto
# Source: eck-operator/templates/operator-namespace.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Namespace
metadata:
  name: elastic-system <!--- Here 
  labels:
    name: elastic-system <!--- Here 
---
# Source: eck-operator/templates/service-account.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: elastic-operator
  namespace: elastic-system <!--- Here and so on... 
  labels:
    control-plane: elastic-operator
    app.kubernetes.io/version: "2.2.0"
...

```
