6. Create an nginx pod in a default namespace and verify the pod running

// creating a pod
kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --restart=Never// List the pod
kubectl get po

7. Create the same nginx pod with a yaml file

// get the yaml file with --dry-run flag

    run: nginx
  name: nginx
spec:
  containers:
  - image: nginx
    name: nginx
    resources: {}
  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
  restartPolicy: Never
status: {}// create a pod 
kubectl create -f nginx-pod.yaml

8. Output the yaml file of the pod you just created

11. Delete the pod you just created

kubectl delete po nginxkubectl delete -f nginx-pod.yaml

12. Delete the pod you just created without any delay (force delete)

kubectl delete po nginx --grace-period=0 --force

13. Create the nginx pod with version 1.17.4 and expose it on port 80

kubectl run nginx --image=nginx:1.17.4 --restart=Never --port=80

14. Change the Image version to 1.15-alpine for the pod you just created and verify the image version is updated

kubectl set image pod/nginx nginx=nginx:1.15-alpinekubectl describe po nginx// another way it will open vi editor and change the version
kubeclt edit po nginxkubectl describe po nginx

15. Change the Image version back to 1.17.1 for the pod you just updated and observe the changes

33. Show metrics of the above pod containers and puts them into the file.log and verify

kubectl top pod busybox --containers// putting them into file
kubectl top pod busybox --containers > file.log
cat file.log

34. Create a Pod with main container busybox and which executes this “while true; do echo ‘Hi I am from Main container’ >> /var/log/index.html; sleep 5; done” and with sidecar container with nginx image which exposes on port 80. Use emptyDir Volume and mount this volume on path /var/log for busybox and on path /usr/share/nginx/html for nginx container. Verify both containers are running.

// create an initial yaml file with this
kubectl run multi-cont-pod --image=busbox --restart=Never --dry-run -o yaml > multi-container.yaml// edit the yml as below and create it
kubectl create -f multi-container.yamlkubectl get po multi-cont-pod

multi-container.yaml

35. Exec into both containers and verify that main.txt exist and query the main.txt from sidecar container with curl localhost

// exec into main container
kubectl exec -it  multi-cont-pod -c main-container -- sh
cat /var/log/main.txt// exec into sidecar container
kubectl exec -it  multi-cont-pod -c sidecar-container -- sh
cat /usr/share/nginx/html/index.html// install curl and get default page

nginx-pod.yaml

134. Create an nginx pod with containerPort 80 and it should check the pod running at endpoint /healthz on port 80 and it should only receive traffic only it checks the endpoint / on port 80. verify the pod.

kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --restart=Never --port=80 --dry-run -o yaml > nginx-pod.yaml// add the livenessProbe and readiness section and create
kubectl create -f nginx-pod.yaml// verify
kubectl describe pod nginx | grep -i readiness
kubectl describe pod nginx | grep -i liveness

nginx-pod.yaml

135. Check what all are the options that we can configure with readiness and liveness probes

kubectl explain Pod.spec.containers.livenessProbe
kubectl explain Pod.spec.containers.readinessProbe

136. Create the pod nginx with the above liveness and readiness probes so that it should wait for 20 seconds before it checks liveness and readiness probes and it should check every 25 seconds.

kubectl create -f nginx-pod.yaml

nginx-pod.yaml

137. Create a busybox pod with this command “echo I am from busybox pod; sleep 3600;” and verify the logs.

kubectl run busybox --image=busybox --restart=Never -- /bin/sh -c "echo I am from busybox pod; sleep 3600;"kubectl logs busybox

138. copy the logs of the above pod to the busybox-logs.txt and verify

kubectl logs busybox > busybox-logs.txtcat busybox-logs.txt

139. List all the events sorted by timestamp and put them into file.log and verify

kubectl get events --sort-by=.metadata.creationTimestamp// putting them into file.log
kubectl get events --sort-by=.metadata.creationTimestamp > file.logcat file.log

140. Create a pod with an image alpine which executes this command ”while true; do echo ‘Hi I am from alpine’; sleep 5; done” and verify and follow the logs of the pod.

// create the pod
kubectl run hello --image=alpine --restart=Never  -- /bin/sh -c "while true; do echo ‘Hi I am from Alpine‘; sleep 5;done"// verify and follow the logs
kubectl logs --follow hello

141. Create the pod with this kubectl create -f https://gist.githubusercontent.com/bbachi/212168375b39e36e2e2984c097167b00/raw/1fd63509c3ae3a3d3da844640fb4cca744543c1c/not-running.yml. The pod is not in the running state. Debug it.

// create the pod
kubectl create -f https://gist.githubusercontent.com/bbachi/212168375b39e36e2e2984c097167b00/raw/1fd63509c3ae3a3d3da844640fb4cca744543c1c/not-running.yml// get the pod
kubectl get pod not-running
kubectl describe po not-running// it clearly says ImagePullBackOff something wrong with image
kubectl edit pod not-running // it will open vim editor
                     or
kubectl set image pod/not-running not-running=nginx

142. This following yaml creates 4 namespaces and 4 pods. One of the pod in one of the namespaces are not in the running state. Debug and fix it. https://gist.githubusercontent.com/bbachi/1f001f10337234d46806929d12245397/raw/84b7295fb077f15de979fec5b3f7a13fc69c6d83/problem-pod.yaml.

kubectl create -f https://gist.githubusercontent.com/bbachi/1f001f10337234d46806929d12245397/raw/84b7295fb077f15de979fec5b3f7a13fc69c6d83/problem-pod.yaml// get all the pods in all namespaces
kubectl get po --all-namespaces// find out which pod is not running
kubectl get po -n namespace2// update the image
kubectl set image pod/pod2 pod2=nginx -n namespace2// verify again
kubectl get po -n namespace2

143. Get the memory and CPU usage of all the pods and find out top 3 pods which have the highest usage and put them into the cpu-usage.txt file

// get the top 3 hungry pods
kubectl top pod --all-namespaces | sort --reverse --key 3 --numeric | head -3// putting into file
kubectl top pod --all-namespaces | sort --reverse --key 3 --numeric | head -3 > cpu-usage.txt// verify
cat cpu-usage.txt

Practice questions based on these concepts

• Understand Services
• Demonstrate a basic understanding of NetworkPolicies

144. Create an nginx pod with a yaml file with label my-nginx and expose the port 80

kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --restart=Never --port=80 --dry-run -o yaml > nginx.yaml// edit the label app: my-nginx and create the pod
kubectl create -f nginx.yaml

nginx.yaml

145. Create the service for this nginx pod with the pod selector app: my-nginx

// create the below service
kubectl create -f nginx-svc.yaml

nginx-svc.yaml

146. Find out the label of the pod and verify the service has the same label

// get the pod with labels
kubectl get po nginx --show-labels// get the service and chekc the selector column
kubectl get svc my-service -o wide

147. Delete the service and create the service with kubectl expose command and verify the label

// delete the service
kubectl delete svc my-service// create the service again
kubectl expose po nginx --port=80 --target-port=9376// verify the label
kubectl get svc -l app=my-nginx

148. Delete the service and create the service again with type NodePort

// delete the service
kubectl delete svc nginx// create service with expose command
kubectl expose po nginx --port=80 --type=NodePort

149. Create the temporary busybox pod and hit the service. Verify the service that it should return the nginx page index.html.

// get the clusterIP from this command
kubectl get svc nginx -o wide// create temporary busybox to check the nodeport
kubectl run busybox --image=busybox --restart=Never -it --rm -- wget -o- <Cluster IP>:80

150. Create a NetworkPolicy which denies all ingress traffic

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: NetworkPolicy
metadata:
  name: default-deny
spec:
  podSelector: {}
  policyTypes:
  - Ingress
