Use kubectl to create the deployment in a Kubernetes namespace

To create the deployment in the Kubernetes namespace, you use the kubectl command.

For kubectl commands that are supported for IBM® z/OS® Container Platform (zOSCP), see kubectl commands.

In the previous step Create a Kubernetes deployment, you created a deployment YAML configuration file that is called sample-deployment.yaml. In the YAML file, the namespace field is set to sample-test. As the namespace field is hardcoded in the YAML file, you can use the kubectl apply command, without the namespace parameter supplied.

To create the deployment within the Kubernetes namespace that uses the sample-deployment.yaml file, run the following kubectl command:

kubectl apply -f sample-deployment.yaml

You will see the output:

deployment.apps/sample-app created
