CrashLoopBackOff is a Kubernetes status for a container that keeps crashing and restarting. Kubernetes increases the delay between attempts to protect the node and cluster. The status usually points to a container configuration problem or a task modeled as a long-running application. section 15.2
Observe repeated restarts
Deploy a Pod whose container exits, then watch its status: kubectl apply -f ch15/exercises/pi/pod.yaml; kubectl get pods --watch. Repeated failures eventually show CrashLoopBackOff. Inspect the container output with kubectl logs pi.
