Hello, was trying to create cluster with helm ```auto wget https://aerospike-trial-download.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/trial-features.conf -O features.conf kubectl -n aerospike create secret generic aerospike-license --from-file=features.conf helm upgrade -i aerospike -n aerospike aerospike/aerospike-cluster -f values_cluster.yaml ``` values.yaml ```auto commonName: aerocluster replicas: 1 image:

Hum… I am not much familiar with Helm… are you able to have a server start up on its own with that feature file? Anything in terms of logs from the db node itself as it seems Helm is just saying that it didn’t start (or that’s how I am interpreting it). ---

Since you are trying out enterprise it is likely more straightforward to use the Aerospike Kubernetes Operator to spin up your cluster. > **[Aerospike Kubernetes Operator | Aerospike Documentation](https://docs.aerospike.com/cloud/kubernetes/operator)** > > Learn about the Aerospike Kubernetes Operator. ---
