Understanding Pod Status

StatusDescriptionAction
PendingWaiting for scheduling, image pulling, resource shortageCheck node resources, image access permissions
RunningRunning normally-
SucceededCompleted (Job, CronJob)Normal termination
FailedContainer terminated abnormallyCheck logs, review resource limits
UnknownNode communication issueCheck node status

Tips

Pending Pod Diagnosis

If Pending status persists, check the following:

  • Node resource shortage (CPU/Memory)
  • Image pull failure (imagePullBackOff)
  • PVC binding pending
  • nodeSelector/affinity conditions not met
Failed Pod Analysis

For Failed Pods, check container logs and events:

  • OOMKilled: Memory limit exceeded
  • CrashLoopBackOff: Repeated crashes
  • Error: Application error
AI Analysis

You can analyze with the AI Assistant using queries like "Pending Pod list", "Failed Pod cause analysis", "Pod status in specific namespace", etc.
