oc: Open a remote shell session to a container.
$ oc rsh ${pod_name}
try on your machine

The command "oc rsh ${pod_name}" is used in the OpenShift Container Platform to remotely access the shell of a specific pod.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "oc" is the command-line interface for interacting with the OpenShift cluster.
  • "rsh" stands for "remote shell" and is a command that allows you to execute commands on a remote machine or pod.
  • "${pod_name}" is a placeholder for the name of the pod you want to access. You need to replace "${pod_name}" with the actual name of the pod.

When you run this command, it establishes a shell session on the specified pod, allowing you to execute commands as if you were directly interacting with the pod's operating system.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
