A pod is a group of containers that are scheduled
|
||
|
onto the same host. Pods serve as units of scheduling, deployment, and
|
||
|
horizontal scaling/replication. Pods share fate, and share some resources, such
|
||
|
as storage volumes and IP addresses.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Creating a pod
|
||
|
|
||
|
Single-container pods can be created with the `run` command. The
|
||
|
pod's properties are specified with flags on the command line.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `run` command creates a replication controller to monitor the pod(s).
|
||
|
The controller watches for failed pods and will start up new pods as required
|
||
|
to maintain the specified number.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note: If you don't want a replication controller to monitor your pod (e.g. your pod
|
||
|
is writing non-persistent data which won't survive a restart, or your pod is
|
||
|
intended to be very short-lived), you can
|
||
|
[create a pod directly with the `create` command](/docs/user-guide/pods/multi-container/).
|
||
|
|
||
|
To create a pod using the `run` command:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```shell
|
||
|
$ kubectl run NAME
|
||
|
--image=image
|
||
|
[--port=port]
|
||
|
[--replicas=replicas]
|
||
|
[--labels=key=value,key=value,...]
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Where:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `NAME` (required) is the name of the container to create. This value is also
|
||
|
applied as the name of the replication controller, and as the prefix of the
|
||
|
pod name. For example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```shell
|
||
|
$ kubectl run example --image=nginx
|
||
|
replicationcontroller "example" created
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ kubectl get pods
|
||
|
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
||
|
example-xypvc 1/1 Running 0 13s
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
* `--image=IMAGE` (required) is the Docker container image to use for this
|
||
|
container.
|
||
|
* `--port=PORT` is the port to expose on the container.
|
||
|
* `--replicas=NUM` is the number of replicated pods to create. If not specified,
|
||
|
one pod will be created.
|
||
|
* `--labels=key=value` specifies one or more labels to attach to the pod. In
|
||
|
addition to any labels specified here, `run` attaches a label of
|
||
|
the format `run=NAME`. This is used by the replication controller
|
||
|
to target the pods created by the command.
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are additional flags that can be specified. For a complete list, run:
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ kubectl run --help
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Viewing a pod

||
|
## Deleting a pod
|
||
|
|
||
|
If your pod was created using the `run` command, kubernetes creates a
|
||
|
[replication controller](/docs/user-guide/replication-controller/)
|
||
|
to manage the pod. Pods managed by a replication controller are rescheduled if
|
||
|
they go away, including being deleted by `kubectl delete pod`. To permanently
|
||
|
delete the pod, delete its replication controller.
|
||
|
|
||
|
First, find the controller's name:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```shell
|
||
|
$ kubectl get rc
|
||
|
CONTROLLER CONTAINER(S) IMAGE(S) SELECTOR REPLICAS
|
||
|
example example busybox run=example 1
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Then, `delete` the controller:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```shell
|
||
|
$ kubectl delete rc CONTROLLER_NAME
|
||
|
```
