My team uses AWX 19.3.0 deployed with AWX Operator version 0.13.0 on a cluster running K8s v1.21. The AWX Operator is in a namespace called “awx-operator”. Several AWX instances are in different namespaces called “awx-”. Postgres installation is managed by the AWX Operator. Yesterday we upgraded the cluster to v1.22 and since then whenever we attempt to deploy an AWX instance, only the Postgres pod is deployed.

Using this manifest

```auto

apiVersion: [awx.ansible.com/v1beta1](http://awx.ansible.com/v1beta1)
kind: AWX
metadata:
name: 'test'
namespace: 'awx-manual-test'
spec:

```

kubectl get all -l “[app.kubernetes.io/managed-by=awx-operator](http://app.kubernetes.io/managed-by=awx-operator)” -n awx-manual-test

```auto

Does anyone know why the AWX pods are not being deployed?
