I am trying to deploy Elasticsearch cluster to AWS EKS. I have this spec:

```auto
apiVersion: elasticsearch.k8s.elastic.co/v1
kind: Elasticsearch
metadata:
  name: datasource
spec:
  version: 7.14.0
  nodeSets:
  - name: node
    count: 3
    config:
      xpack.security.http.ssl.enabled: false
      xpack.security.transport.ssl.enabled: false
      xpack.security.enabled: false
    podTemplate:
      spec:
        initContainers:
        - name: sysctl
          securityContext:
            privileged: true
          command: ['sh', '-c', 'sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144']
        containers:
        - name: elasticsearch
          readinessProbe:
            exec:
              command:
              - bash
              - -c
              - /mnt/elastic-internal/scripts/readiness-probe-script.sh
            failureThreshold: 3
            initialDelaySeconds: 10
            periodSeconds: 12
            successThreshold: 1
            timeoutSeconds: 12
          env:
          - name: READINESS_PROBE_TIMEOUT
            value: "30"
    volumeClaimTemplates:
    - metadata:
        name: elasticsearch-data
      spec:
        accessModes:
          - ReadWriteOnce
        storageClassName: ebs-sc
        resources:
          requests:
            storage: 1024Gi

```

But after apply this spec, I got this error message:

```auto

{"timestamp": "2021-10-11T05:05:22+00:00", "message": "readiness probe failed", "curl_rc": "35"}

```

You can see it shows GREEN first but show `readiness probe failed` afterward. How can I solve this issue?
