Pod Conditions in Kubernetes

Conditions complement Pod Status, it is an array of True/False values that tell us the state of the Pod:

• PodScheduled. Then the Pod is scheduled on a node, this condition is set to True
• Initialized. Respective when the Pod is initialized - this value is set to True
• ContainersReady. True - when the all containers in the Pod are ready
• Ready. True - when the Pod itself are considered ready and it is ready to accept user traffic
• Unschedulable: True when the Pod can't be scheduled, for example due to resource constraints

To check the condidtions, run:

kubectl describe po {{ pod_name }}

and look to the Conditions section. Also the condtition Ready can be viewed with:

kubectl get po

check READY field
