kubectl taint
Synopsis
Update the taints on one or more nodes.
- A taint consists of a key, value, and effect. As an argument here, it is expressed as key=value:effect.
- The key must begin with a letter or number, and may contain letters, numbers, hyphens, dots, and underscores, up to 253 characters.
- Optionally, the key can begin with a DNS subdomain prefix and a single '/', like example.com/my-app.
- The value is optional. If given, it must begin with a letter or number, and may contain letters, numbers, hyphens, dots, and underscores, up to 63 characters.
- The effect must be NoSchedule, PreferNoSchedule or NoExecute.
- Currently taint can only apply to node.
kubectl taint NODE NAME KEY_1=VAL_1:TAINT_EFFECT_1 ... KEY_N=VAL_N:TAINT_EFFECT_N
Examples
# Update node 'foo' with a taint with key 'dedicated' and value 'special-user' and effect 'NoSchedule'
# If a taint with that key and effect already exists, its value is replaced as specified
kubectl taint nodes foo dedicated=special-user:NoSchedule
# Remove from node 'foo' the taint with key 'dedicated' and effect 'NoSchedule' if one exists
kubectl taint nodes foo dedicated:NoSchedule-
# Remove from node 'foo' all the taints with key 'dedicated'
kubectl taint nodes foo dedicated-
# Add a taint with key 'dedicated' on nodes having label myLabel=X
kubectl taint node -l myLabel=X dedicated=foo:PreferNoSchedule
# Add to node 'foo' a taint with key 'bar' and no value
kubectl taint nodes foo bar:NoSchedule
Options
--all | |
Select all nodes in the cluster | |
--allow-missing-template-keys Default: true | |
If true, ignore any errors in templates when a field or map key is missing in the template. Only applies to golang and jsonpath output formats. | |
--dry-run string[="unchanged"] Default: "none" | |
Must be "none", "server", or "client". If client strategy, only print the object that would be sent, without sending it. If server strategy, submit server-side request without persisting the resource. | |
--field-manager string Default: "kubectl-taint" | |
Name of the manager used to track field ownership. | |
-h, --help | |
help for taint | |
-o, --output string | |
Output format. One of: (json, yaml, name, go-template, go-template-file, template, templatefile, jsonpath, jsonpath-as-json, jsonpath-file). | |
--overwrite | |
If true, allow taints to be overwritten, otherwise reject taint updates that overwrite existing taints. | |
-l, --selector string | |
Selector (label query) to filter on, supports '=', '==', and '!='.(e.g. -l key1=value1,key2=value2). Matching objects must satisfy all of the specified label constraints. | |
--show-managed-fields | |
If true, keep the managedFields when printing objects in JSON or YAML format. | |
--template string | |
Template string or path to template file to use when -o=go-template, -o=go-template-file. The template format is golang templates [http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#pkg-overview]. | |
--validate string[="strict"] Default: "strict" | |
Must be one of: strict (or true), warn, ignore (or false). "true" or "strict" will use a schema to validate the input and fail the request if invalid. It will perform server side validation if ServerSideFieldValidation is enabled on the api-server, but will fall back to less reliable client-side validation if not. "warn" will warn about unknown or duplicate fields without blocking the request if server-side field validation is enabled on the API server, and behave as "ignore" otherwise. "false" or "ignore" will not perform any schema validation, silently dropping any unknown or duplicate fields. |
--as string | |
Username to impersonate for the operation. User could be a regular user or a service account in a namespace. | |
--as-group strings | |
Group to impersonate for the operation, this flag can be repeated to specify multiple groups. | |
--as-uid string | |
UID to impersonate for the operation. | |
--cache-dir string Default: "$HOME/.kube/cache" | |
Default cache directory | |
--certificate-authority string | |
Path to a cert file for the certificate authority | |
--client-certificate string | |
Path to a client certificate file for TLS | |
--client-key string | |
Path to a client key file for TLS | |
--cluster string | |
The name of the kubeconfig cluster to use | |
--context string | |
The name of the kubeconfig context to use | |
--default-not-ready-toleration-seconds int Default: 300 | |
Indicates the tolerationSeconds of the toleration for notReady:NoExecute that is added by default to every pod that does not already have such a toleration. | |
--default-unreachable-toleration-seconds int Default: 300 | |
Indicates the tolerationSeconds of the toleration for unreachable:NoExecute that is added by default to every pod that does not already have such a toleration. | |
--disable-compression | |
If true, opt-out of response compression for all requests to the server | |
--insecure-skip-tls-verify | |
If true, the server's certificate will not be checked for validity. This will make your HTTPS connections insecure | |
--kubeconfig string | |
Path to the kubeconfig file to use for CLI requests. | |
--match-server-version | |
Require server version to match client version | |
-n, --namespace string | |
If present, the namespace scope for this CLI request | |
--password string | |
Password for basic authentication to the API server | |

--profile-output string Default: "profile.pprof" | |
Name of the file to write the profile to | |
--request-timeout string Default: "0" | |
The length of time to wait before giving up on a single server request. Non-zero values should contain a corresponding time unit (e.g. 1s, 2m, 3h). A value of zero means don't timeout requests. | |
-s, --server string | |
The address and port of the Kubernetes API server | |
--storage-driver-buffer-duration duration Default: 1m0s | |
Writes in the storage driver will be buffered for this duration, and committed to the non memory backends as a single transaction | |

database name | |
--storage-driver-host string Default: "localhost:8086" | |
database host:port | |
--storage-driver-password string Default: "root" | |

--storage-driver-secure | |
use secure connection with database | |
--storage-driver-table string Default: "stats" | |
table name | |
--storage-driver-user string Default: "root" | |
database username | |
--tls-server-name string | |
Server name to use for server certificate validation. If it is not provided, the hostname used to contact the server is used | |
--token string | |
Bearer token for authentication to the API server | |
--user string | |
The name of the kubeconfig user to use | |
--username string | |
