Symptoms:
While performing a helm upgrade, you may encounter an error indicating that the rendered manifests contain a resource that already exists. This is an actual error indicating a conflict due to a Custom Resource Definition existing in the system for a previous installation and not deleted appropriately. 

In such a case, the conflicting resource would not appear in any of the general methodologies to find/remediate the list of available resources such as,
  • helm list --all
  • --skip-crds
  • kubectl get crd
  • --all-namespaces
