Question

In Kubernetes, I have a pod which is running 2 containers. When one container stops, another container is still running, On this event i want to terminate the pod. How can i do this? Somebody Please help!

• You need to add a liveness and readiness probe to query each container,  if the probe fails, the entire pod will be restarted .

• Add liveness object that calls any API that returns 200 to you from another container and both liveness and readiness probes run in infinite loops.

• For example, If X depended to Y So add liveness  in X that check the health of Y.

• Both readiness/liveness probes always have to run after the container has been started .

• kubelet component performs the liveness/readiness checks and set initialDelaySeconds and it can be anything from a few seconds to a few minutes depending on app start time. 

• Below is the configuration spec

livenessProbe spec:
livenessProbe:
httpGet:
path: /path/test/
port: 10000
initialDelaySeconds: 30
timeoutSeconds: 5
readinessProbe spec:
readinessProbe:
httpGet:
path: /path/test/
port: 10000
initialDelaySeconds: 30
timeoutSeconds: 5
