    Hi,

    I am trying to install APIConnect v10 in CP4I 2021.2.1 Every time when i try to install APIConnect instance I am getting error from a job called 'apis-configurator' and error details are: BackoffLimit exceeded 'Job has reached the specified backoff limit'. What is the resolution for this issue?

    When you installed APIConnect, did you select Block Storage?

    Hi pam,

    Yes, since our cp4i is installed on IBM Cloud, I am using ibmc-block-gold for APIConnect.

    Where are you seeing this error? I might have reproduced it.

    Hi @Pam Andrejko @Santhosh Ramanathan - Was there a solution to this issue? We are experiencing the same issue with installing APIC on CP4I v2021.3.1
    ​The configurator job fails because it is unable to fetch the access token and that results in following error:

    {"name":"apic-configurator","file":"configure","hostname":"dev-apic-configurator-bfh2s","pid":18,"function":"js:338:12","level":50,"msg":"Failed to configure API Connect: 401 - {\"status\":401,\"message\":[\"Unauthorized\"]}","time":"2021-10-01T01:57:25.265Z","v":0}
    npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
    npm ERR! errno 2
    npm ERR! apic-configurator@1.0.0 start: `NODE_ENV=production node .`
    npm ERR! Exit status 2
    npm ERR!
    npm ERR! Failed at the apic-configurator@1.0.0 start script.
    npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.

    All the other APIC servers are installed, but are not accessible. ​

    Hi @Romil Garg , I was able to resolve the issue by deploying it in new namespace by keeping the below points:

    1. make sure you have added your entitlement key as secret in ibm-entitlement-key

    2. Follow these steps:
    1. When the Event Gateway pod is up, complete the following steps to avoid the image pull failure described in troubleshooting:

      1. Log in to the OpenShift Container Platform web console as an administrator.

      2. Go to User Management -> ServiceAccounts.

      3. Select the namespace where you want to install your instance from the Project dropdown.

      4. Search for egw and select <instance-name>-event-gw

      5. Click the YAML tab.

      6. Add the new secret under imagePullSecrets: in the following format:

        - name: ibm-entitlement-key

      7. Click Save.

      8. Click Save again when the message about Managed resource is displayed
