- 2 virt-operators pods
- 2 virt-api pods
- 2 virt-controllers pods
- 3 virt-handlers pods
- 13 custom resource definitions
#### Removing
Per KubeVirt documentation the kubevirt custom resource should be deleted prior to removal of the operator.
```shell
kubectl delete -n kubevirt kubevirt kubevirt --wait=true
helm uninstall kubevirt --namespace=kubevirt
kubectl delete ns kubevirt
kubectl delete crd kubevirts.kubevirt.io
```
### Updating the KubeVirt Big Bang Chart
The helm chart needs to be created from raw manifests, as no equivalent alternative is publicly supported.
1. Generate the chart manifests
```shell
export VERSION=x.y.z # must manually set version
make update-chart
make clean
```
