NAME

kubectl rolling-update - Perform a rolling update of the given ReplicationController.

SYNOPSIS

kubectl rolling-update [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

Perform a rolling update of the given ReplicationController.

Replaces the specified replication controller with a new replication controller by updating one pod at a time to use the new PodTemplate. The new-controller.json must specify the same namespace as the existing replication controller and overwrite at least one (common) label in its replicaSelector.

OPTIONS

--container=""
    Container name which will have its image upgraded. Only relevant when --image is specified, ignored otherwise. Required when using --image on a multi-container pod

--deployment-label-key="deployment"
    The key to use to differentiate between two different controllers, default 'deployment'. Only relevant when --image is specified, ignored otherwise

--dry-run=false
    If true, print out the changes that would be made, but don't actually make them.

-f, --filename=[]
    Filename or URL to file to use to create the new replication controller.

--image=""
    Image to use for upgrading the replication controller. Must be distinct from the existing image (either new image or new image tag). Can not be used with --filename/-f

--no-headers=false
    When using the default output, don't print headers.

-o, --output=""
    Output format. One of: json|yaml|wide|name|go-template=...|go-template-file=...|jsonpath=...|jsonpath-file=... See golang template [ ⟨http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#pkg-overview⟩] and jsonpath template [ ⟨http://releases.k8s.io/HEAD/docs/user-guide/jsonpath.md⟩].

--output-version=""
    Output the formatted object with the given version (default api-version).

--poll-interval=3s
    Time delay between polling for replication controller status after the update. Valid time units are "ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s", "m", "h".

--rollback=false
    If true, this is a request to abort an existing rollout that is partially rolled out. It effectively reverses current and next and runs a rollout

--schema-cache-dir=" /.kube/schema"
    If non-empty, load/store cached API schemas in this directory, default is '$HOME/.kube/schema'

-a, --show-all=false
    When printing, show all resources (default hide terminated pods.)

--sort-by=""
    If non-empty, sort list types using this field specification. The field specification is expressed as a JSONPath expression (e.g. 'ObjectMeta.Name'). The field in the API resource specified by this JSONPath expression must be an integer or a string.

--template=""
    Template string or path to template file to use when -o=go-template, -o=go-template-file. The template format is golang templates [ ⟨http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#pkg-overview⟩].

--timeout=5m0s
    Max time to wait for a replication controller to update before giving up. Valid time units are "ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s", "m", "h".

--update-period=1m0s
    Time to wait between updating pods. Valid time units are "ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s", "m", "h".

--validate=true
    If true, use a schema to validate the input before sending it

OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS

--alsologtostderr=false
    log to standard error as well as files

--api-version=""
    The API version to use when talking to the server

--certificate-authority=""
    Path to a cert. file for the certificate authority.

--client-certificate=""
    Path to a client certificate file for TLS.

--client-key=""
    Path to a client key file for TLS.

--cluster=""
    The name of the kubeconfig cluster to use

--context=""
    The name of the kubeconfig context to use

--insecure-skip-tls-verify=false
    If true, the server's certificate will not be checked for validity. This will make your HTTPS connections insecure.

--kubeconfig=""
    Path to the kubeconfig file to use for CLI requests.

--log-backtrace-at=:0
    when logging hits line file:N, emit a stack trace

--log-dir=""

--log-flush-frequency=5s
    Maximum number of seconds between log flushes

--logtostderr=true
    log to standard error instead of files

--match-server-version=false
    Require server version to match client version

--namespace=""
    If present, the namespace scope for this CLI request.

--password=""
    Password for basic authentication to the API server.

-s, --server=""
    The address and port of the Kubernetes API server

--stderrthreshold=2
    logs at or above this threshold go to stderr

--token=""
    Bearer token for authentication to the API server.

--user=""
    The name of the kubeconfig user to use

--username=""
    Username for basic authentication to the API server.

--v=0
    log level for V logs

--vmodule=
    comma-separated list of pattern=N settings for file-filtered logging

EXAMPLE

    # Update pods of frontend-v1 using new replication controller data in frontend-v2.json.
    $ kubectl rolling-update frontend-v1 -f frontend-v2.json
    # Update pods of frontend-v1 using JSON data passed into stdin.
    $ cat frontend-v2.json | kubectl rolling-update frontend-v1 -f -
    # Update the pods of frontend-v1 to frontend-v2 by just changing the image, and switching the
    # name of the replication controller.
    $ kubectl rolling-update frontend-v1 frontend-v2 --image=image:v2
    # Update the pods of frontend by just changing the image, and keeping the old name.
    $ kubectl rolling-update frontend --image=image:v2
    # Abort and reverse an existing rollout in progress (from frontend-v1 to frontend-v2).
    $ kubectl rolling-update frontend-v1 frontend-v2 --rollback
