Determining the cause of kubernetes pod restart


Your can check crashed pod log by running

$ kubectl logs -f <pod name> -n <namespace> --previous


The pod could have been terminated for reasons like out of memory. Use kubectl describe pod <podname> which contains the information.

There should be output like this (could also be a different reason than OOM):

    Last State:     Terminated      Reason:       OOMKilled
