I’ve been trying to install **AWX 21.8.0** on a new Ubuntu machine with awx-operator 1.0.0 and migrate the database from a machine with **AWX 19.1.0** , but the deployment only creates 1 pod: **awx-operator-controller-manager**  
Maybe I’m doing something wrong in the configuration. What should be the value for **host**? I’ve used the public IP of the old server, but I’ve noticed that the postgres pod has a different IP. Had someone else had this issue before?  
This is the content of the **awx.yml** file used for installation:

are you able to tail the logs of the operator? after applying awx.yml, you should see the operator starting emitting logs

kubectl logs -f deployments/awx-operator-controller-manager -c awx-manager

maybe check to see if errors popped up there

Yes, I was able to see the logs, but I couldn’t figure out what the problem was:

Hello,  
Thank you for providing this additional information. Could you try applying the custom resource again with some verbosity? Please also provide us with the output of $ kubectl get events -n awx ?

Thank you for providing this additional information!

Thank you for replying  
How can I run with more verbosity? The output is with the variable **no\_log: false**  
And as for the get events command I receive this output: ‘No resources found in awx namespace.’

Could you try using -v 8 against your kubectl apply command:

kubectl apply -v 8 -k . ( or where ever your awx-install.yaml lives)

Thanks,
