Pod Termination
A Pod Termination Fault allows terminating either a fixed number or a percentage of the pods that matching a selector or back a service.
A Pod Termination fault is defined by the following attributes:
Attribute | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
count | integer or percentage | the number of pods to be terminated. It can be specified as a integer number or as a percentage, for example 30% , that defines the fraction of target pods to be terminated |
Note
If the count is a percentage and there are no enough elements in the target pod list, the number is rounded up. For example ‘25%’ of a list of 2 target pods will terminate one pod. If the list of target pods is not empty, at least one pod is always terminated.
Example
This example defines a PorTermination fault that will terminate 30%
of target pods
const fault = {
count: '30%',
};
