Overview

A Kubernetes Job is a workload resource that can be used to start and manage Pods to successful completion. A Pod is considered completed, and thus counted against the completion counter only if finishes successfully. The job can be configured to manage a specific number of successful executions with .spec.completions.

Example

apiVersion: batch/v1
kind: Job
metadata:
  name: test-job
spec:
  completions: 1
  backoffLimit: 0
  template:
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: test-container
        image: docker.com/some-image:1.0.0
        command: ["some-command", "test"]
      restartPolicy: Never

.spec Elements

backoffLimit

Specifies the number of retries before marking this job failed. Defaults to 6. Retries are counted in addition to the initial execution.
