Explain pods fail to start

Db2 Data Management Console explain pods fail to start after you restart the pods.

Resolving the problem

To resolve the problem, complete the following steps:
  1. Check the status of the explain pod. Run the following command:
    oc get pod -l app.kubernetes.io/component=explain -n ${PROJECT_CPD_INST_OPERANDS} 
    NAME                                              READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
ibm-dmc-1691005413727850-explain-777f859d-qmc6v   0/1     Running   478 (5m11s ago)   7d5h
  2. Add more resources to the explain pod. Run the following command:
    oc patch -n ${PROJECT_CPD_INST_OPERANDS} dmc/data-management-console --type=merge --patch '{"spec":{"custom_resources":{"explain": {"limits":{"cpu": "500m", "memory": "1500Mi", "ephemeral-storage": "550Mi"}, "requests":{"cpu": "250m", "memory": "1500Mi", "ephemeral-storage": "50Mi"} }}}}'

  3. Wait for all the pods to restart and check the status of the explain pod. Run the following command:
    oc get pod -l app.kubernetes.io/component=explain -n ${PROJECT_CPD_INST_OPERANDS}
    NAME                                              READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
