kubelet manages images automatically, it should delete them on disk pressure, or GC unused ones.

Why do you want to delete images?

i had a situation when i accidentally pushed an corrupted image , and it got stuck inside a node. so each time i do "helm install", technically the image is already present on a node. but pods wont start.. i need a way to manually delete an image

There is an imagePullPolicy for that, but certainly better to use distinct tags/digests. Removing images seems like a workaround, not a solution.

I totally agree, yet, the question is, if it's possible to do ``` crictl rmi <img-id>` ``` or equivalent command?
