<summary>What is the purpose of ReplicaSet?</summary><br><b>
A ReplicaSet's purpose is to maintain a stable set of replica Pods running at any given time. As such, it is often used to guarantee the availability of a specified number of identical Pods.
[kubernetes.io](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/replicaset): "A ReplicaSet's purpose is to maintain a stable set of replica Pods running at any given time. As such, it is often used to guarantee the availability of a specified number of identical Pods."
In simpler words, a ReplicaSet will ensure the specified number of Pods replicas is running for a selected Pod. If there are more Pods than defined in the ReplicaSet, some will be removed. If there are less than what is defined in the ReplicaSet then, then more replicas will be added.
</b></details>
<details>
<summary>How a ReplicaSet works?</summary><br><b>
<summary>What will happen when a Pod, created by ReplicaSet, is deleted directly with <code>kubectl delete po ...</code>?</summary><br><b>
A ReplicaSet is defined with fields, including a selector that specifies how to identify Pods it can acquire, a number of replicas indicating how many Pods it should be maintaining, and a pod template specifying the data of new Pods it should create to meet the number of replicas criteria.
A ReplicaSet then fulfills its purpose by creating and deleting Pods as needed to reach the desired number. When a ReplicaSet needs to create new Pods, it uses its Pod template.
The ReplicaSet will create a new Pod in order to reach the desired number of replicas.

<details>
<summary>What happens when a replica dies?</summary><br><b>
<summary>True or False? If a ReplicaSet defines 2 replicas but there 3 Pods running matching the ReplicaSet selector, it will do nothing</summary><br><b>

* The client (e.g. kubectl) sends a request to the API server to create a ReplicaSet
* The Controller detects there is a new event requesting for a ReplicaSet
* The controller creates new Pod definitions (the exact number depends on what is defined in the ReplicaSet definition)
* The scheduler detects unassigned Pods and decides to which nodes to assign the Pods. This information sent to the API server
* Kubelet detects that two Pods were assigned to the node it's running on (as it constantly watching the API server)
* Kubelet sends requests to the container engine, to create the containers that are part of the Pod
* Kubelet sends a request to the API server to notify it the Pods were created

1. Create a ReplicaSet with 2 replicas. The app can be anything.
```
cat >> rs.yaml <<EOL
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: ReplicaSet
metadata:
name: web
labels:
app: somewebapp
type: web
spec:
replicas: 2
selector:
matchLabels:

labels:
type: web
spec:
containers:
- name: httpd
image: registry.redhat.io/rhscl/httpd-24-rhel7
EOL
kubectl apply -f rs.yaml
```
2. Verify a ReplicaSet was created and there are 2 replicas
```
kubectl get rs
# OR a more specific way: kubectl get -f rs.yaml
```
3. Delete one of the Pods the ReplicaSet has created
```
kubectl delete po <POD_NAME>
```
4. If you'll list all the Pods now, what will you see?
```
The same number of Pods. Since we defined 2 replicas, the ReplicaSet will make sure to create another Pod that will replace the one you've deleted.
```
5. Remove the ReplicaSet you've created
```
kubectl delete -f rs.yaml
```
6. Verify you've deleted the ReplicaSet
```
kubectl get rs
# OR a more specific way: kubectl get -f rs.yaml
```

2. Verify a ReplicaSet was created and there are 2 replicas
```
kubectl get rs
# OR a more specific way: kubectl get -f rs.yaml
```
3. Remove the ReplicaSet but NOT the pods it created
```
kubectl delete -f rs.yaml --cascade=false
```
4. Verify you've deleted the ReplicaSet but the Pods are still running
```
kubectl get rs # no replicas
kubectl get po # Pods still running
```
5. Create again the same ReplicaSet, without changing anything
```
kubectl apply -f rs.yaml
```
6. Verify that the ReplicaSet used the existing Pods and didn't create new Pods
```
kubectl describe rs web # You should see there are no new events and if you list the pods with 'kubectl get po -f rs.yaml` you'll see they have the same names
```

## ReplicaSet 03 - Solution
1. Create a ReplicaSet with 2 replicas. Make sure the label used for the selector and in the Pods is "type=web"
```
cat >> rs.yaml <<EOL
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: ReplicaSet
metadata:
name: web
labels:
app: somewebapp
type: web
spec:
replicas: 2
selector:
matchLabels:
type: web
template:

kubectl apply -f rs.yaml
```
2. Verify a ReplicaSet was created and there are 2 replicas
```
kubectl get rs
# OR a more specific way: kubectl get -f rs.yaml
```
3. List the Pods running and save the output somewhere
```
kubectl get po > running_pods.txt
```
4. Remove the label (type=web) from one of the Pods created by the ReplicaSet
```
kubectl label pod <POD_NAME> type-
```
5. List the Pods running. Are there more Pods running after removing the label? Why?
```
Yes, there is an additional Pod running because once the label, used as a matching selector, was removed, the Pod became independant meaning, it's not controlled by the ReplicaSet anymore and the ReplicaSet was missing replicas based on its definition so, it created a new Pod.
```
6. Verify the ReplicaSet indeed created a new Pod
```
kubectl describe rs web
```
