To determine which Kasm Helm chart you are currently using, run the following command:

helm list -n {NAMESPACE}

Interpret the output as follows:

  • Legacy chart (kasm-single-zone):

    The output contains:

    NAME    NAMESPACE       REVISION        UPDATED                                 STATUS          CHART                           APP VERSION
