Hi,

I’m trying to install sensu on EKS following the [sensu k8s getting started](https://github.com/sensu/sensu-k8s-quick-start).

The issue I’m facing is that the backend readiness probe keeps failing with the following error:

```auto
Readiness probe failed: command "wget --no-check-certificate -q -O- http://127.0.0.1:8080/health" timed out

```

The pod’s logs show:

```auto
{"component":"store","health":{"MemberID":10276657743932975437,"MemberIDHex":"8e9e05c52164694d","Name":"sensu-etcd-0","Err":"context canceled","Healthy":

```

There’s nothing in the yaml files that allows me to workaround this issue. seems like the backend is trying to make an api request to `sensu-etcd-0` instead of `sensu-etcd` which is the short hostname of the sensu-etcd service.

Has anyone came across this issue before or knows how to fix it? I’ve looked it up here and in the github repo issues but didn’t find anything.

I found the solution [in the repo itself](https://github.com/sensu/sensu-k8s-quick-start/issues/9)
