[Kubernetes] Pod Health

Kubernetes relies on Probes to determine the health of a Pod container. A Probe is a diagnostic performed periodically by the kubelet on a container.

docs

There are two types of Probes:

1. Livenss Probe

Liveness probes can be used to determine if a Pod is healthy and running as expected

2. Readiness Probe

Readiness probes can be used to determine if a Pod should receive requests

Failed Pod containers are recreated by default (restartPolicy defaults to Always).

What is the way to check Pod health?

ExecAction: Excutes an action inside the container

TSPSockerAction: TCP check against the container‘s IP address on specified port

HTTPGetAction: HTTP GET request against container

Probes can have the following results:

 - Success

 - Failure

 - Unknown
