I have a k8s deployment that I update by doing kubectl apply -f spec.yml
. I use the default update strategy.
Whenever I update, new pods get created and the old ones eventually get deleted.
This is what kubectl get pods
looks like a few seconds after calling apply
:
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
server-243710380-7s7g0 1/1 Terminating 0 9m
server-243710380-ffzv1 1/1 Terminating 0 9m
server-243710380-gfs3h 1/1 Terminating 0 9m
server-3561703442-24dxm 1/1 Running 0 13s
server-3561703442-7jlds 1/1 Running 0 8s
server-3561703442-x5xw1 1/1 Running 0 11s
As you can see, the ones in Terminating
status hang around, typically for about 30 seconds, before really disappearing. This happens despite the new pods reaching running
status within a few seconds.
How can I control the time the old pods remain in terminating
status? Specifically, I want them to terminate as quickly as possible.
