@lsnyder @Bingu_Shim : It seems, you were able to deploy Elastic and Kibana using ECK and custom certificate. Can one of you please share working yaml and commands:

> - elastic and Kibana yaml
> - create secrete command or yaml file

Need it to deploy it to Azure (AKS).

Thanks in advance.

Hello @nikunjbanker

I did posted sample yaml [HERE](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/ssl-handshake-fails-between-kibana-apmserver-and-elasticsearch-after-custom-certificate-setting-on-elasticsearch/208604/9)

and this is command that I used.

```auto
kubectl create secret generic <my secret> --from-file=ca.crt=<Root CA File>.crt --from-file=tls.crt=<my crt file>.crt --from-file=tls.key=<my key file>.key

```
