Hi! I plan to configure existing awx 21.x to use custom-ca-bundle. I followed the instruction in github: [https://github.com/ansible/awx-operator/issues/376](https://github.com/ansible/awx-operator/issues/376) however it is not working for me. could some one help me here. Steps followed: created the secret named awx-ssl-ca-custom modified the awx.yaml file to have the space contains above awx-ssl-ca-custom bundle\_cacert\_secret: awx-ssl-ca-custom then ran the kubectl -n awx replace -f awx.yaml after the above step it is not triggering operator deployment, I had to do it manually however still the cert is not populated under /etc/pk of each container. Kindly advice. Thanks. ---

Hello! Could you provide the output of your `kubectl -n awx replace -f awx.yaml` command? Does the command itself complete successfully? Can you include the awx.yaml file (removing any sensitive information, as needed)? This will better help us understand what is happening. Thanks! AWX Team ---

Hi there, I think kubeclt edit or kubectl patch would be better for what you’re doing here. I’m not fully sure why your pods aren’t coming up but if you use replace you need to provide the full spec, not just the specific thing you want changed. This might help you out: [https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/generated/kubectl/kubectl-commands#replace](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/generated/kubectl/kubectl-commands#replace) We would be curious if this fixes your issue or not, because we can’t seem to do a reproduction on our end here. Thanks, AWX Team ---
