Hello, I think I have deleted all the deployments as mentioned here: [The Ray Kubernetes Operator — Ray v1.2.0](https://docs.ray.io/en/latest/cluster/k8s-operator.html#k8s-operator) but I still have an errored ray head node present in the ray namespace:

$ kubectl -n ray get pods  
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE  
example-cluster-ray-head-rs6cq 0/1 Error 0 38h

Can you please help with the delete of the errored ray head node?

FYI I have manually force deleted the node by this command:

kubectl delete pod example-cluster-ray-head-rs6cq --grace-period=0 --force --namespace ray

Sounds like a bug – if you’re able to reproduce the problem, it would be great if you could file an issue on the Ray github.
