Hi Roman,

Thanks for looking into this and gave us suggestions.

I re-ran the "vagrant up" and looking into the logs for "deckhand-db-init-zs499" as showed below.
It showed ERROR:  checkpoint request failed
HINT:  Consult recent messages in the server log for details.

What is the specific "server" log we should look into for details?  

================== log for deckhand-db-init-zs499 ==================================
root@n0:/home/vagrant# kubectl logs deckhand-db-init-zs499 -n ucp

Hi,

We are trying to deploy AIIB.

I have a physical server with Ubuntu 16.04.5 OS, installed virtualbox and vagrant.
The process is straightforward by following https://opendev.org/airship/in-a-bottle/  
We created ~/deploy directory,  downloaded Vagrantfile, and do "vagrant up".

However it stuck in the error below:
 deckhand-db-init-r9jvg                                      0/1       CrashLoopBackOff   16 

Could anyone help to resolve this?  Many thanks in advance.

Sincerely,
Calvin

======================================

Hello Calvin,

Try to get some kubectl logs and describe deckhand-db-init-r9jvg pod.
kubectl describe pod deckhand-db-init-r9jvg -u ucp
May be it would help to understand what is happening there.

Thank you for trying Airship.

Best regards,
