When I deploy a new instance of ECK, I only see services with port 9200

```auto
service/r4e-elasticsearch-datastore-cluster-es-http ClusterIP 10.224.83.227 <none> 9200/TCP 3h37m
service/r4e-elasticsearch-datastore-cluster-kb-http ClusterIP 10.224.85.11 <none> 5601/TCP 3h37m
pod/r4e-elasticsearch-datastore-cluster-es-default-0 1/1 Running 0 3h37m
pod/r4e-elasticsearch-datastore-cluster-kb-65b79d76c9-pwpgg 1/1 Running 0 3h37m

```

I need a java app to connect to port 9300 for TCP, is this available on ECK?

We don't currently expose the transport layer through a Kubernetes service but you can easily change that yourself:

```auto
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: my-custom-transport
spec:
  selector:
    common.k8s.elastic.co/type: elasticsearch
    elasticsearch.k8s.elastic.co/cluster-name: $YOUR_CLUSTER_NAME
  type: LoadBalancer 
  ports:
  - protocol: TCP
    port: 9300
    targetPort: 9300

```

Adjust the service type as needed: if you are not running in a managed Kubernetes offering of one of the public cloud providers then `LoadBalancer` probably does not make sense. If your client is connecting from within the same Kubernetes cluster than type `ClusterIP` will be sufficient etc.

Also note that we are probably going to add this service in a future release of ECK, but in the meantime you can create it yourself.

Thnx @pebrc for your reply, I managed to do as you instructed but spring boot apps can't seem to connect on port 9300. If I do a curl on port 9200

```auto
{
  "name" : "r4e-elasticsearch-comments-cluster-es-default-0",
  "cluster_name" : "r4e-elasticsearch-comments-cluster",
  "version" : {
    "number" : "6.8.6",
    "build_flavor" : "default",
    "build_type" : "docker",
    "build_snapshot" : false,
    "lucene_version" : "7.7.2",
    "minimum_wire_compatibility_version" : "5.6.0",
    "minimum_index_compatibility_version" : "5.0.0"
  },
  "tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}

```

but on port 9300

```auto
 curl r4e-elasticsearch-comments-cluster-es-external:9300
curl: (52) Empty reply from server

```

Which is different response when I query our server on the TCP port

```auto
curl elasticsearch-legacy.prod.eng-us.:9300
This is not an HTTP port

```

Is there some setting I have to enable for this to work properly?

Hi, did you ever make this work?
