Using Ephemeral Containers
Introduction
An ephemeral container runs temporarily in an existing running pod primarily for debugging and troubleshooting purposes. When your pod(s) crash or your application misbehaves, but you can't restart the workloads for various reasons, you create an ephemeral container.
In Devtron, you can create an ephemeral container in the following ways:
Create From App Details Page
You can quickly create an ephemeral container directly from the App Details page of your application. Refer to Create Ephemeral Containers for more information.
Create From Resource Browser
To create an ephemeral container from the Resource Browser, refer to Launching Ephemeral Container.
Create From Cluster Terminal
This is not a recommended method. However, if you still wish to proceed, then this option is available only if you are an Admin.
Remove an Ephemeral Container
You can remove an ephemeral container from either the App Details page or the Resource Browser.
