How to open a terminal to a Pod?

In order to open a terminal to a Running Pod there are two options:

Using the web interface

1. Log into Rahti 2's web interface and navigate to Project > Pods. (Or Workloads > Pods in Administrator view)

2. Click on any of the Pod names whose status is Running.

3. Click on the Terminal tab to reveal the terminal.

Using the command line with oc

1. First, get the name of the Pod you want to open an interactive terminal session to:

   $ oc get pods
   NAME                READY     STATUS      RESTARTS   AGE
   django-ex-1-build   0/1       Completed   0          2h
   django-ex-1-svwg2   1/1       Running     0          2h
   django-ex-1-rtbak   1/1       Running     0          2h
   

2. We see that a terminal to either django-ex-1-svwg2 or django-ex-1-rtbak can be opened.

   oc rsh pod/django-ex-1-rtbak
