Very Handy Kubernetes Commands
Updated: Sep 24
This post describes some of the Kubernetes commands which we found quite handy.
If you find it useful feel free to share this blog post.
How to check if POD is in running Status ?
When you create POD , at times POD may take some time to get created so instead of executing the get pod command again and again to check the Running status you could use --watch flag with kubectl
kubectl get po --watch

How to check on which Node POD is running ?
Method 1
kubectl get po -o wide

If using Minikube you should see the following

Method 2
kubectl describe no
This provides a complete list of of PODS running on that node. This is quite handy in case you want to know which PODs are running on the node.
