 ## Installing the Chart
 
+### Installing the CRDs
+
+By default, Helm installs a number of custom resource definitions (CRDs). Those CRDs are required for the VirtualServer, VirtualServerRoute and TransportServer custom resources.
+
+If you do not use those resources (which corresponds to `controller.enableCustomResources` set to `false`), you can skip the installation of the CRDs:
+
+* Using Helm 3.x client:
+
+    Specify `--skip-crds` for the helm install command.
+
+* Using a Helm 2.x client:
+
+    Set `controller.enableCustomResources` to `false`.
+
+> **Note**: If the CRDs are already installed in the cluster, Helm will skip the CRDs installation.

+### Upgrading the CRDs
+
+Helm does not upgrade the CRDs during a release upgrade. Before you upgrade a release, run the following command to upgrade the CRDs:
+
+```console
+$ kubectl apply -f crds/
+```
+
+> **Note**: Make sure to check the [release notes](https://www.github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/releases) for a new release for any special upgrade procedures.
+
+### Upgrading the Release
+
+To upgrade the release `my-release`
+
+* Using Helm 3.x client:
+
+    ```console
+    $ helm upgrade my-release

+* Using Helm 2.x client:

+
+> **Note**: The following command will delete all the corresponding custom resources in your cluster across all namespaces. Please ensure there are no custom resources that you want to keep and there are no other Ingress Controller releases running in the cluster.
+
+## Running Multiple Ingress Controllers
+
+If you are running multiple Ingress Controller releases in your cluster with enabled custom resources, the releases will share a single version of the CRDs. As a result, make sure that the Ingress Controller versions match the version of the CRDs. Additionally, when uninstalling a release, ensure that you don’t remove the CRDs until there are no other Ingress Controller releases running in the cluster.
