Problem
You got a pod left in NotReady
status due to failed helm chart installation or resource deployment.
➜ ✗ kubectl get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
release-0.11-kube-promethe-admission-create-7j7fz 1/2 NotReady 2 8m1s
Tried to remove the pod with kubectl delete pod
will just cause the pod to be recreated.
Solutions
Uninstall helm chart
Run helm ls -A
to list all current installed charts. Check the chart status.
NAME NAMESPACE REVISION UPDATED STATUS CHART APP VERSION
tomlab default 1 2022-09-26 09:30:38.909619 +1000 AEST failed kube-prometheus-stack-40.1.2 0.59.1
To remove the failed chart, run helm uninstall [chart_name] -n [namespace_name]
. This should remove the pods created by the chart.
Check Pending Deployments
Sometimes a pending deployment will left pods in NotReady status. As long as the deployment is not removed, the pods will get recreated even when you try to delete them manually.
To check currently deployments:
kubectl get deployments --all-namespaces
To remove the deployments and its resources:
kubectl delete deployment [deployment_name]
Check Pending Jobs
If all above fails, lookup all the jobs currently pending.
➜ ✗ kubectl get job
NAME COMPLETIONS DURATION AGE
release-0.11-kube-promethe-admission-create 0/1 2d17h 2d17h
Kill the job
kubectl delete -f jobs [job_name]
After that you should be able to clean up the NotReady
pods relate to the job.
