11/30/2023, 8:48 PMTaking a swing at the operator over the past week, and ran into a little snag trying to follow the various scenarios in the walkthrough. I went for the fluentbit to fluentd collector scenario, and it seems fluentd is requesting a volume for buffering. I was struggling with finding the CR value that disables/overrides this behaviour (permanence in helm I believe). Anyone possibly give me a pointer or ref link to disabling the request for a pvc (memory/ephemeral storage scenario) for the fluentbit to fluentd forward scenario? Thank you for any help, been a fun tool to play around with.

I just liked my classic style in the walkthrough and was like lemme try my goto. Really the only gotcha was the lack of armhf support that stopped me, sad reason, but not my first exp with the fun of arm
