Get Information about Pods

kubectl get pods|po

kubectl describe pod <pod-name>

Pod Output (Log)

kubectl log <pod-name>

"Follow" logging:

kubectl logs -f <pod-name>

This shell command could be used to log a pod in such a way logging survives a pod restart:

while ! kubectl -n my-namespace logs -f my-pod; do sleep 1; done

Create Pods

A singleton pod can be created by posting a pod manifest to the API server with:

kubectl apply -f <pod-manifest-file-name>.yaml

Removing an Individual Pod

Remove Immediately

kubectl delete pod pod-name --grace-period=0 --force
