3.14 kubectl statement is not correct

furqanbaqai

Hi, in section 3, lecture 3.14, statement is written as
kubectl exec -i​t <Pod-Name> --/bin/bash
I checked the documentation and saw that it should be:
kubectl exec -it <Pod-Name> --container <container-name> -- /bin/bash

Thanks

Hi @furqanbaqai,
You are correct, the statement provided by you is useful for a multi-container pod. That is also mentioned on slide 3.14, right above the statement from the lecture:

If you have more than one container, declare which container

However, for a single-container pod, you can use it just as it is presented in the lecture, without declaring a container name. It works for a multi-container pod as well, but it defaults to the first started container.
