I have encountered delays while deploying two apps on SOAR, with prolonged processing times on the AppHost. Additionally, when using the command 'sudo kubectl get pods -A' on the AppHost console, I am encountering an 'imagepullbackoff' error. I am seeking positive assistance and solutions from the community.

Secondly, 

 Thank you.

This is generally caused by a connectivity issue. All apps are containers whose images are pulled from a registry. By default that registry is quay.io. If you don't have connectivity from your edge gateway/app host machine to quay.io, you'll need to enable that. IBM Support can help you get that set up if you are a customer.

The page https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/sqsp/51?topic=installation-network-configuration describes network configuration requirement for App Host.

Quay.io may use one of its CDN URL. We're working with technical writer to update full list of CDN URL now.
