Hi Team,

I am not able to launch the CFK on EKS, i am getting message when i describe pod confluent-operator.

So how do we create this secret (confluent-registry) manually, as we don’t have a internet access to download from helm repository.

`"Unable to retrieve some image pull secrets (confluent-registry); attempting to pull the image may not succeed."`

Anyone able to advise on this. Thanks in advance.

Regards,  
Srini.
