Apache atlas initialization fails in VDC chart

[planetf1]

The apache atlas jobs container fails to start - showing:

vdc-odpi-egeria-vdc-job-04-init-apache-atlas-tvdf7      0/1     Init:0/3    0          17m

and we can see the first task is to check the service is running -- but logging into the atlas container what we find is:

It looks as if solr has problems - even in this clean environment. This may mean we have a bad atlas build, or need to do some updates.

Either way the vdc environment is incomplete. The most appropriate action appears to be to disable until fixed.

Putting this on hold until we've completed refactoring around samples/security/ranger and figured out where we want to go next with vdc.

If you are dependent on the vdc chart and need to get it working please comment here and I'll look at it sooner

The VDC environment will need significant re-work to adapt to the many changes made in Egeria to better support
metadata integration. Additionally the helm charts used for the lab & a simple base config have evolved to better support
different types of services, exposing of ports, persistent storage etc.

As such specific incremental changes to the current - now old - charts do not really add value.

As such closing for now
