Hi,

I am using the elasticsearch helm chart ([https://github.com/elastic/helm-charts/tree/master/elasticsearch](https://github.com/elastic/helm-charts/tree/master/elasticsearch)) to deploy to Kubernetes cluster.  
It fails to come up properly. I think it is due to the health check (via http) with its hostname.

I am just wondering if anyone has seen the same issue. Not sure how to debug the issue.

When I run "kubectl describe pods ..."

```auto
.......
 Containers:
  test-es-master-vcqdc-test:
    Container ID: docker://28b6383270b600ef103edd7d1a83b35374fd8fe80d5aba9a673c029a0e86571c

Hi @nobound,  
We'll need more informations to help you,  
Can you post the command you are using to deploy Elasticsearch Helm chart , the content of your `values.yaml` file and the logs of the Elasticsearch pod which is failing?
