## Privileges required

Installations from other installation methods (such as istioctl, Istio Operator, other helm charts, etc) can be migrated to use the new Helm charts
following the guidance below.
If you are able to, a clean installation is simpler. However, this often requires an external IP migration which can be challenging.

WARNING: when installing over an existing deployment, the two deployments will be merged together by Helm, which may lead to unexpected results.

### GKE notes

On GKE, 'kube-system' is required.

If using `helm template`, `--set cni.cniBinDir=/home/kubernetes/bin` is required - with `helm install`

in that cluster. Currently, the minimum we require is the security provider (node agent or citadel).

### Install Istio CRDs

This is the first step of the installation. Please do not remove or edit any CRD - config currently requires
all CRDs to be present. On each upgrade it is recommended to reapply the file, to make sure

To override a setting that includes dots, escape them with a backslash (\).  Your shell may require enclosing quotes.

``` bash
istioctl manifest generate --set "values.sidecarInjectorWebhook.injectedAnnotations.container\.apparmor\.security\.beta\.kubernetes\.io/istio-proxy=runtime/default"
```
