Kubernetes has a ton of pods in error state that can't seem to be cleared

Question

I was originally trying to run a Job that seemed to get stuck in a CrashBackoffLoop. Here was the service file:

apiVersion: batch/v1
kind: Job
metadata:
  name:         


        

Answer 1

I usually remove all the Error pods with this command. kubectl delete pod `kubectl get pods --namespace | awk '$3 == "Error" {print $1}'` --namespace
