Lost state?

[whyvez]

Does helm-tiller maintain state somewhere? On a tiller stop/start, I lose my releases. I can see my release on my cluster but helm release does not return anything. I can also see releases from other namespaces but not in my own. Could it be because I didn't stop tiller using the stop command?

Here is an example of the steps to replicate this issue.

• start tiller 👉 helm tiller start
• install release 👉 helm install
• list releases, release shows 👉 helm list
• computer restart
• start tiller
• list releases, no releases

What am I doing wrong?

If I run kubectl get pods I see the pods for my release.

I tried duplicating the issue without success. How could this disconnect happen? How could helm/tiller not know of a release it has done in the past?
