# Portainer fails to deploy on Vultr's VKE platform

When attempting to deploy Portainer on Vultr's VKE (Vultr Kubernetes Engine) platform using our standard manifests, deployment will hang. This is because our manifests define a 10Gi volume claim from the Storage Class, but VKE will only accept a minimum of 40Gi when provisioning storage.

To resolve this issue, download the manifest and edit it in a text editor of your choice. You will need to change the option:

```
storage: "10Gi"
```

to the following:

```
storage: "40Gi"
```

Save the changes to the manifest. You can now use this edited manifest to deploy Portainer on VKE.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.portainer.io/faqs/installing/portainer-fails-to-deploy-on-vultrs-vke-platform.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
