The policy for garbage collecting containers considers three user-defined variables. `MinAge` is the minimum age at which a container can be garbage collected. `MaxPerPodContainer` is the maximum number of dead containers any single
pod (UID, container name) pair is allowed to have. `MaxContainers` is the maximum number of total dead containers. These variables can be individually disabled by setting 'Min Age' to zero and setting 'MaxPerPodContainer' and 'MaxContainers' respectively to less than zero.
kubelet will act on containers that are unidentified or outside of the boundaries set by the previously mentioned flags. The oldest containers will generally be removed first. 'MaxPerPodContainer' and 'MaxContainer' may potentially conflict with each other in situations where retaining the maximum number of containers per pod ('MaxPerPodContainer') would go outside the allowable range of global dead containers ('MaxContainers'). 'MaxPerPodContainer' would be adjusted in this situation: A worst case scenario would be to downgrade 'MaxPerPodContainer' to 1 and evict the oldest containers.

Additionally, containers owned by pods that have been deleted are removed once they are older than `MinAge`.
Containers that are not managed by kubelet are not subject to container garbage collection.
