kubectl get pods not returning succeeded jobs

[Ming Fang]

I was able to successfully run the Pi Job example here https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/da46dab0806075b3ae593b94a1e1b8c79a47d9f1/docs/user-guide/jobs.md

After the job runs, I can no longer see the pod when I run kubectl get pods.  However the pod still shows up using the REST api curl http://<master>:8080/api/v1/pods.

I would expect the two methods of listing pods to return the same results.

Also does this mean that we have to manually delete completed jobs?

Yes you need to manually delete completed jobs. 

Having the pods show up via REST but not kubectl is definitely unexpected.  Are you sure you were listing pods in the right namespace?

With kubectl, it filters pods not in the current namespace.  Try adding the --all-namespaces option when listing with kubectl.

Kubectl now hides failed pods by default, and probably all terminated pods. There's a flag you can pass to include these hidden pods, IIRC it's -a or --all or some such.
