Working with Deployments
Deployments manage ReplicaSets and rolling updates for stateless applications.
Common actions
| Action | Steps |
|---|---|
| Describe | Right-click Deployment → Describe |
| Scale | Context menu scale action or edit replicas in form/YAML |
| Restart rollout | Context menu restart where supported |
| Edit YAML | Describe webview → YAML tab |
| Delete | Context menu → Delete (confirmation required) |
Tips
- Check related ReplicaSets and Pods by expanding the deployment in the tree or from describe sections.
- Use YAML apply for image tag changes when form fields do not expose the path you need.
