A {{< glossary_tooltip text="pod" term_id="pod" >}} object that a {{< glossary_tooltip text="kubelet" term_id="kubelet" >}} uses
|
|
to represent a {{< glossary_tooltip text="static pod" term_id="static-pod" >}}

|
|
When the kubelet finds a static pod in its configuration, it automatically tries to
|
|
create a Pod object on the Kubernetes API server for it. This means that the pod
|
|
will be visible on the API server, but cannot be controlled from there.
|
|
|
|
(For example, removing a mirror pod will not stop the kubelet daemon from running it).
