How to Investigate a Kubernetes Deployment That Never Becomes Available

A deployment may remain unavailable because new pods cannot schedule, start, pass readiness, or replace old replicas safely.

Checks to make

Inspect rollout status, replica sets, pod events, logs, resource requests, probes, and image pull results. Compare desired and ready replica counts, then identify the first failing stage before changing rollout strategy.

When to get help
