Key Concepts selecting container.
c< $container>] • Cluster Introspection
Now let’s discuss the key points of this architecture. Kubectl logs -f<name>>[-c< FUNCTION COMMAND
Get logs from service for a container
$container>]
• Pod: These are the group of containers.
Get version information Kubectl version
• Labels: These are used to identify the pods.
• Kubelet: They are container agents, responsible for maintaining Watch -n 2
Watch the kubelet logs Get cluster information Kubectl cluster-info
the set of pods. cat/var/log/kublet.log
• Proxy: They are the Load balancer for pods, helping in
distributing tasks across the pods. Show metrics for node Kubectl top node Get the configuration Kubectl config g view
• ETCD: A Metadata service.
• Cadvisor: For resource usage and performance stats. Show metrics for pods Kubectl top pod Output info about a node Kubectl describe node<node>
• Replication controller: It manages pod replication. Features
• Scheduler: Used for pod scheduling in worker nodes.
• API server: Kubernetes API server. • Automated scheduling- provides an advanced scheduler that helps
launch container on cluster nodes Other Quick Commands
Now let’s understand the role Master and Node play in the • Self healing- reschedule, replace and restart dead containers.
Kubernetes Architecture. • Automated rollouts and rollbacks- supports rollback for systems Launch a pod with a name an image : Kubectl run<name> -- Map external port to internal replication port : Expose rc<name> -
incase of a failure. Enables rollout and rollback for the desired state. image=<image-name> -port=<external>--target-port=<internal>
• Horizontal scaling- can scale up and down the app as per required. Can Create a service in <manifest.yaml> : Kubectl create -f To stop all pod in <n> : Kubectl drain<n>-- delete-local-data--force--
also be automated wrt CPU usage. <manifest.yaml> ignore-daemonset
• Service discovery and load balancing- uses unique ip and dns name to Scale replication counter to count the number of instances Allow master nodes to run pods : Kubectltaintnodes --all-node-
containers. This helps identify them across different containers. : Kubectl scale --replicas=<count> role.kuernetes.io/master-
