Kubernetes Service Ingress Error

{question}

My operator logging shows:

Reconciler error : failed to get service endpoint (svc-sdb-cluster-ddl): no ingress endpoint found

What do I do?

{question}

{answer}

This error is encountered when the LoadBalancer Service type (the default setting for services with the operator) is used without an installed or properly configured external load balancer in the cluster. You will need to configure an external load balancer (like MetalLB), but usually, cloud providers will configure one for you (consult your cloud providers' Kubernetes documentation).

You can read more about LoadBalancer services on the Kubernetes documentation here: Service: Type LoadBalancer.
