Hey @alexus, what is the metadata of the ES cluster at that point? I wonder if the timeout is failing to remove finalizers for some reason. Either way it definitely looks like we need better logging around here to be able to diagnose the situation. ---

Sorry I meant of the cluster itself -- so `kubectl get elasticsearch quickstart -o yaml` ---
