I have a dozen of cron jobs on GKE. My docker registry is down. The status of these cron jobs becomes: ImagePullBackOff
My thinking is, the cron jobs should pull the docker image once after deploying and use the cached/local docker image.
Shouldn't pull the docker image every time from remote docker registry when the cron job creates a new pod. It's a waste, because the docker image doesn't change (I mean the application code of cron job).
So, is there a way to do this?
Purpose: if can do this, my cron jobs will always running using local docker image before next deploying, even if docker registry is down.
you can use one of the "Container Images" properties mentioned here.
Please setup in your deployment: imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent.
Note:
if imagePullPolicy is omitted and either the image tag is :latest or it is omitted: Always is applied.
Please verify your deployment settings and verify also if docker images are present on the machine.
