Using the web interface

  2. Click on any of the Pod names whose status is Running.

  3. Click on the Terminal tab to reveal the terminal.

Terminal Pod

Terminal

If you cannot see the commands in the Terminal, please expand it by clicking "Expand" on the top right. You can collapse and the commands will still be displayed

Using the command line with oc

  1. First, get the name of the Pod you want to open an interactive terminal session to:

    $ oc get pods
    NAME                READY     STATUS      RESTARTS   AGE
    django-ex-1-build   0/1       Completed   0          2h
    django-ex-1-svwg2   1/1       Running     0          2h
    django-ex-1-rtbak   1/1       Running     0          2h
    
  2. We see that a terminal to either django-ex-1-svwg2 or django-ex-1-rtbak can be opened.

    oc rsh pod/django-ex-1-rtbak
