Is this a valid imperative command for creating job?
kubectl create job my-job --image=busybox
I see this in https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/generated/kubectl/kubectl-commands. But the command is not working. I am getting error as bellow:
Error: unknown flag: --image
What is the correct imperative command for creating job?
Try this one
kubectl create cronjob my-job --schedule="0,15,30,45 * * * *" --image=busy-box
What you have should work, though it not recommended as an approach anymore. I would check what version of kubectl you have, and possibly upgrade it if you aren't using the latest.
That said, the more common approach these days is to write a YAML file containing the Job definition and then run kubectl apply -f myjob.yaml or similar. This file-driven approach allowed for more natural version control, editing, review, etc.
Using correct value for --restart field on "kubectl run" will result run command to create an deployment or job or cronjob
--restart='Always': The restart policy for this Pod. Legal values [Always, OnFailure, Never]. If set to 'Always'
a deployment is created, if set to 'OnFailure' a job is created, if set to 'Never', a regular pod is created. For the
latter two --replicas must be 1. Default 'Always', for CronJobs `Never`.
Use "kubectl run" for creating basic kubernetes job using imperatively command as below
master $ kubectl run nginx --image=nginx --restart=OnFailure --dry-run -o yaml > output.yaml
Above should result an "output.yaml" as below example, you can edit this yaml for advance configurations as needed and create job by "kubectl create -f output.yaml or if you just need basic job then remove --dry-run option from above command and you will get basic job created.
