Mirror Pod mirror-pod 2091-02-12 An object in the API server that tracks a static pod on a kubelet.
fundamental

A {{< glossary_tooltip text="pod" term_id="pod" >}} object that a 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).
