Hi,  
is deploying multiple instances in the same namespace supported?  
I get error trying for the second time with news name: invalid ownership metadata; annotation validation error: key “meta.helm.sh/release-name” must equal “jh2”: current value is “jh1”

I saw this [topic](https://discourse.jupyter.org/t/deploying-multiple-jupyterhub-charts-into-the-same-namespace/9423).

tried to add:  
hub:  
extraEnv:  
HUB\_NAMESPACE:  
name: HUB\_NAMESPACE  
valueFrom:  
fieldRef:  
fieldPath: metadata.namespace  
PREFIXED\_HUB\_NAMESPACE:  
value: “jh2-$(HUB\_NAMESPACE)”

but it still failing.

Thank you,  
Yan
