Remove Overlay Content

You may wish to remove some content from an overlay you reference. The technique below shows how to remove a number of items using a label. This approach scales more easily than removing specific objects, but needs more care to ensure it does not remove too much.

Example Customization

1. Go to your ESS installation directory:

   cd ${HOME}/ess
   

2. Modify the kustomization.yaml (i.e., step 3 of the Applying Your Customizations procedure).

   Specifically, add the highlighted content to the kustomization.yaml file under the patches key:

   Tip

   If patches key does not exist in kustomization.yaml, add the key patches as well.

   # kustomization.yaml in your ESS installation directory
   
   # ...  Preceding content omitted for brevity 
   # ...
   
   patches:
     - target:
         labelSelector: role=logging
       patch: |-
         $patch: delete
         kind: not-important
         metadata:
           name: not-important
   

3. Continue with the rest of the Applying Your Customizations procedure.
