## Useful metrics queries

### How to retrieve non-standard Pod state

It is not straightforward to get the Pod states for certain cases like "Terminating" and "Unknown" since it is not stored behind a field in the `Pod.Status`.

So to mimic the [logic](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/v1.17.3/pkg/printers/internalversion/printers.go#L624) used by the `kubectl` command line, you will need to compose multiple metrics.

For example:

* To get the list of pods that are in the `Unknown` state, you can run the following PromQL query: `sum(kube_pod_status_phase{phase="Unknown"}) by (namespace, pod) or (count(kube_pod_deletion_timestamp) by (namespace, pod) * sum(kube_pod_status_reason{reason="NodeLost"}) by(namespace, pod))`

* For Pods in `Terminating` state: `count(kube_pod_deletion_timestamp) by (namespace, pod) * count(kube_pod_status_reason{reason="NodeLost"} == 0) by (namespace, pod)`

Here is an example of a Prometheus rule that can be used to alert on a Pod that has been in the `Terminating` state for more than `5m`.

```yaml
groups:
- name: Pod state
  rules:
  - alert: PodsBlockedInTerminatingState
    expr: count(kube_pod_deletion_timestamp) by (namespace, pod) * count(kube_pod_status_reason{reason="NodeLost"} == 0) by (namespace, pod) > 0
    for: 5m
    labels:
      severity: page
    annotations:
      summary: Pod {{$labels.namespace}}/{{$labels.pod}} blocked in Terminating state.
```
