    kubernetes pod restart deployment

    As of kubernetes 1.15, you can do a rolling restart of all pods for a deployment without taking the service down. To achieve this we'll have to use kubectl rollout restart.

    Let's asume you have a deployment with two replicas:

    $ kubectl get pods
NAME                                     READY   STATUS      RESTARTS   AGE
pet2cattle-5454555dbb-6jtnz              1/1     Running     0          131m
pet2cattle-5454555dbb-czw42              1/1     Running     0          19s
