kubectl-describe:tldr:7207f
The kubectl describe
command is used to provide a detailed description of Kubernetes resources. It retrieves information about a specific resource and displays it in a human-readable format.
The -f
flag specifies that the resource definition is provided through a file. ${path-to-manifest-yaml}
should be replaced with the actual path to the YAML file containing the resource definition.
By executing kubectl describe -f ${path-to-manifest-yaml}
, you are asking kubectl
to retrieve and display detailed information about the Kubernetes resource defined in the specified YAML file. This information can include the resource's current status, configuration details, events, and other relevant information that may help troubleshoot issues or understand the current state of the resource.
