Hi all! I'm trying to deploy the ECK following the quick start document. Running the **Step 1: Install [custom resource definitions](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/extend-kubernetes/api-extension/custom-resources/) and the operator with its RBAC rules:**

However, the logging show me that it fails to get API group resources and unable to crate controller manager:

Any ideas?

It looks like the operator cannot reach the API server: `Get https://10.80.0.1:443/api?timeout=32s: dial tcp 10.80.0.1:443: i/o timeout`. Do you have any network policies or other security measures that could prevent the operator from contacting the API server?

Thanks a lot! I rebuild my K8s cluster and now it works. But there is another problem:

After trying to deploy the simple Elasticsearch cluster specification, with one Elasticsearch node:

My Elasticsearch node stopped and showed me that events:

**Warning Unexpected 5m44s (x8 over 13m) elasticsearch-controller (combined from similar events): Could not update cluster license: failed to revert to basic: Post [https://quickstart-es-http.default.svc:9200/\_license/start\_basic?acknowledge=true:](https://quickstart-es-http.default.svc:9200/_license/start_basic?acknowledge=true:) dial tcp: lookup quickstart-es-http.default.svc on 10.96.0.10:53: read udp 10.244.2.5:40691-\>10.96.0.10:53: i/o timeout**

Do you have any idea of this situation?
