List pods that are servicing a service

Question

I am trying to get the list of pods that are servicing a particular service

There are 3 pods associated with my service.

I tried to execute the below command

oc describe svc my-svc-1

I am expecting to see the pods associated with this service. but that does not show up. What command gets me just the list of pods associated with the service.

Answer 1

A service chooses the pods using the selector. Look at the selector for the service, and get the pods using that selector. For kubectl, the command looks like:

kubectl get pods --selector <selector>
