By default, the kubelet tries to pull each image from the specified registry. However, if the imagePullPolicy property of the container is set to IfNotPresent or Never, then a local image is used (preferentially or exclusively, respectively).
You use imagePullPolicy: Never directive in your Deployment and when you try to deploy your manifest, kubelet fails to find required images locally.
