Kubernetes Containers

This page lists all containers and associated information such as node name, container pod name, image ID and so on for each container managed by Kubernetes.

Kubernetes inventory data will be updated to reflect new inventory, and inventory that is no longer present will be removed each and every time the Flexera Kubernetes Inventory Agent collects inventory from a Kubernetes cluster(s) in your environment.

Results can be exported to the following output formats: RTF, PDF, CSV, and XLSX.

Available columns

Columns are grouped into the following categories. The category name appears on the top of the column heading when you drag a property from the Column Chooser. Properties that belong to the same category appear under single category title.

•

Cluster Properties

Image Properties

Some columns are displayed by default and others can be displayed through the column chooser. To manage columns and other UI options, see the topics under Managing Columns in a Table.

Cluster Properties

The following Cluster properties are displayed.

Cluster Properties on the Kubernetes Containers Page

Property	Description
Cluster ID	The unique ID of the cluster containing the worker node where the pod runs the container instantiated from the image.
Cluster name	The name of the cluster containing the worker node where the pod is running (typically hosting a container instantiated from the named image). Cluster names are not guaranteed to be unique.

Node Properties

The following Node properties are displayed.

Node Properties on the Kubernetes Containers Page

Property	Description
Cores	The total number of processor cores available in the worker node.
Corporate unit	The corporate unit responsible for the worker node.
Cost center	The cost center responsible for all costs incurred for the worker node.
Location	The location within your enterprise that is responsible for the worker node.
Node name	The host name of the Kubernetes worker node.
Operating system	The operating system of the worker node.
Processors	The total number of processors available in the worker node.
Role	The role assigned to the worker node, such as Development, Test, and Production.
Status	The current state of the worker node. It can have any of the following values: • Active—The device is active, for which the inventory information is received from an inventory source. • Archived—The device is in transition pending deletion, but is currently held because of its historical impacts on IBM PVU sub-capacity retrospective calculations. • Awaiting Inventory—This device is a place-holder that has not yet appeared in imported inventory from any source. • Ignored—The device is not managed. An ignored device is not considered in license consumption calculations.

Container Pod Properties

The following Container Pod properties are displayed.

Container Pod Properties on the Kubernetes Container Page

Property	Description
Container pod name	The name of the Kubernetes pod that the container is running in.
Namespace	The Kubernetes namespace for the pod where the container is running.
Status	The status of the pod (for rows displaying a Kubernetes container, this is the pod where the container is running). The status may then be one of the following "pod phases": • Failed • Pending • Running • Succeeded • Unknown. For further information please see https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/pods/pod-lifecycle/.
UID	The unique identifier of the pod where the container is running.

Container Properties

The following Container properties are displayed.

Container Properties on the Kubernetes Containers Page

Property	Description
Container ID	Unique identifier of the container.
Container name	The name of the container.
Last used date	The date which the container was last discovered to be running. • For containers with: • A Status of Running, displays the current date • Any value of Status other than Running, displays the date when the container stopped running.
Repository tags	The repository tag for the image used to launch this container. Most often this is the same value as for the image repository tags, but the value may be different where one of multiple image tags was selected for this container.
Status	The status of the container, the four possible container states are: • Running • Terminated • Waiting • Unknown.

Image Properties

The following Image properties are displayed.

Image Properties on the Kubernetes Containers Page

Property	Description
Image ID	Unique identifier of the image. Populated for the image and containers instantiated from it. (Remains blank for any Kubernetes pod not running a container.) You can click on this link to open the Container Image Properties page for this image.
Last used date	The last date a container deployed from this image and discovered as running. This value may be: • In images with any running container, the most recent date that a reconcile occurred, when any container instantiated from this image was running. • For images without a running container, the date when the most recently-running container stopped running.
Operating system	The operating system in the user environment contained in the image that the container is running.
Repository tags	The repository tag(s) associated with the image that the container is running.
