Hi all,

I have been trying now for almost a week to deploy a AWX with AWXOperator 26-29 version and latest stable AWX app on a Rancher v2.6 3NODE kubernetes cluster with NFS storage.

I kept hitting the same error - at the point when postgres-13 POD needs to be created I get an ERROR message that  
message: ‘Error: stat /data/postgres-13: no such file or directory’

Since I am relatively new to kubernetes and awx, I went with simplified setup using single node cluster and hostPath storage type, so here is my configuration setup:  
AWX Operator: v 0.29.0  
AWX app : latest  
awx.yml:

seems like the answer i gave isnt showing so ill try again.

create this first so you can sett password for the postgresdb  
host used to be awx-postgres but is not awx-postgres-13  
if not supplying it might fail. (at least it did for me )
