Hi, Could you please help us with the Sonarqube Kubernetes deployment. The container starts and stops instantly. I see no errors in the log. Please check the attachment for our logs in DEBUG mode. [sonar.zip](https://community.sonarsource.com/uploads/short-url/9UVwOcVGybMD05W6S4lpCsxxWsP.zip) (92.7 KB) Environment: - which versions are you using: sonarqube:8.9-community - what are you trying to achieve: sonarqube running in kubernetes cluster and connected to MS SQL server - what have you tried so far to achieve this: initial helm deployment considering [Deploy SonarQube on Kubernetes | SonarQube Docs](https://docs.sonarqube.org/8.9/setup/sonarqube-on-kubernetes/) ---

Hi @konstantin and welcome to the community 👋 thank you for providing the logs. > [@konstantin](#): > > 2021.07.19 04:46:59 INFO web[o.s.p.ProcessEntryPoint] Gracefully stopping process this indicates that the SQ pod is stopped by the kube scheduler as it was probably marked as a failed deployment due to not being ready in time. can you try to increase the [failureThreshold](https://github.com/SonarSource/helm-chart-sonarqube/blob/master/charts/sonarqube/values.yaml#L121) and/or increase the initial [limits](https://github.com/SonarSource/helm-chart-sonarqube/blob/master/charts/sonarqube/values.yaml#L263) to speed up the startup process and retry? ---

Hi @Tobias_Trabelsi and thank you so much for your advice. It definitely helped: > 2021.07.22 00:31:05 INFO ce[o.s.ce.app.CeServer] Compute Engine is operational > 2021.07.22 00:31:06 INFO app[o.s.a.SchedulerImpl] Process[ce] is up > 2021.07.22 00:31:06 INFO app[o.s.a.SchedulerImpl] SonarQube is up I would prefer to have it somewhere in k8s documentation if it is not done yet. Thanks a lot! And have a great day. ---
