Hello

I’ve applied Percona Operator 1.7.0 on GKE. Installation, admin DB access is ok.

But if I create a collection, I get the following error :

percona-client:

mongos\> db.createCollection(“2222”);  
{  
“ok” : 0,  
“errmsg” : “Database 1111 could not be created :: caused by :: No shards found”,  
“code” : 70,  
“codeName” : “ShardNotFound”,  
“operationTime” : Timestamp(1622495235, 2),  
…  
}  
}

From google console everything looks ok. If I connect directly to the rs0-1/2/3 pods then it works. But the problem is, that this is not the idea of sharding ?!

It’s always funny if you deliver the answer by yourself. For the sake of the Percona community:

In cr.yaml file the commented section of sidecars/busybox has to be enabled. So far looks ok.
