Kubectl cheat sheet

TOC

Node management

Show node info

kubectl get node

Mark node as unschedulable (preparing for reboot or shutdown)

kubectl cordon $NODENAME

Reserve resources on a node**

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: resource-reserver
spec:
  containers:
  - name: sleep-forever
    image: gcr.io/google_containers/pause:0.8.0
    resources:
      requests:
        cpu: 100m
        memory: 100Mi

Set the cpu and memory values to the amount of resources you want to reserve. Place the file in the manifest directory (--config=DIR flag of kubelet).

Pods management

Label filtering

Pods can be filtered by their label with (in)equality (=|==, !=), by presence/abscence of value in set (in, notin) or by presence/abscence of the key. This filters can be aggregate by separing all filter with a comma, acting like an AND logical operator.

e.g.

kubectl get pods -l 'environment in (production, qa),tier=backend,partition'

will process the folowing filter

["production", "qa"].includes(pod_labels.environment) && pod_labels.tier=="backend" && pod_labels.hasOwnProperty("partition")
