# patchLifecycleV1alpha1NamespacedEviction

From **Kubernetes**.

`PATCH /apis/lifecycle.k8s.io/v1alpha1/namespaces/{namespace}/evictions/{name}`

partially update the specified Eviction

## Parameters

### `name`

- Location: path
- Required: true
- Type: `string`
- uniqueItems: `true`

name of the Eviction

### `namespace`

- Location: path
- Required: true
- Type: `string`
- uniqueItems: `true`

object name and auth scope, such as for teams and projects

### `pretty`

- Location: query
- Required: false
- Type: `string`
- uniqueItems: `true`

If 'true', then the output is pretty printed. Defaults to 'false' unless the user-agent indicates a browser or command-line HTTP tool (curl and wget).

### `dryRun`

- Location: query
- Required: false
- Type: `string`
- uniqueItems: `true`

When present, indicates that modifications should not be persisted. An invalid or unrecognized dryRun directive will result in an error response and no further processing of the request. Valid values are: - All: all dry run stages will be processed

### `fieldManager`

- Location: query
- Required: false
- Type: `string`
- uniqueItems: `true`

fieldManager is a name associated with the actor or entity that is making these changes. The value must be less than or 128 characters long, and only contain printable characters, as defined by https://golang.org/pkg/unicode/#IsPrint. This field is required for apply requests (application/apply-patch) but optional for non-apply patch types (JsonPatch, MergePatch, StrategicMergePatch).

### `fieldValidation`

- Location: query
- Required: false
- Type: `string`
- uniqueItems: `true`

fieldValidation instructs the server on how to handle objects in the request (POST/PUT/PATCH) containing unknown or duplicate fields. Valid values are: - Ignore: This will ignore any unknown fields that are silently dropped from the object, and will ignore all but the last duplicate field that the decoder encounters. This is the default behavior prior to v1.23. - Warn: This will send a warning via the standard warning response header for each unknown field that is dropped from the object, and for each duplicate field that is encountered. The request will still succeed if there are no other errors, and will only persist the last of any duplicate fields. This is the default in v1.23+ - Strict: This will fail the request with a BadRequest error if any unknown fields would be dropped from the object, or if any duplicate fields are present. The error returned from the server will contain all unknown and duplicate fields encountered.

### `force`

- Location: query
- Required: false
- Type: `boolean`
- uniqueItems: `true`

Force is going to "force" Apply requests. It means user will re-acquire conflicting fields owned by other people. Force flag must be unset for non-apply patch requests.

### `200`

Eviction initiates an eviction process, which should ideally result in a graceful eviction of a .spec.target (e.g. termination of a pod).

The evictionrequest-controller observes intents of all EvictionRequests and transforms them into Evictions. It manages the Eviction lifecycle. Requesters are preserved in .status.requesters even after they have withdrawn their request. If all requesters withdraw their eviction intent for a common target, the eviction will be canceled. Once all EvictionRequest corresponding to this Eviction .spec.target have been removed, this Eviction object will eventually be garbage collected.

If the target is a pod, the .status.targetResponders is populated from Pod's .spec.evictionResponders.

Responders should observe and communicate through the .status to help with the eviction of the target when they see their state == Active in .status.targetResponders. ResponderStatus struct should then be periodically updated to indicate the progress or completion of the eviction process by each responder in .status.responders. If .status.responders[].heartbeatTime is not updated within the heartbeat deadline defined by the Eviction API (currently 20 minutes), the eviction is passed over to the next responder with a lower priority.

If there are no other responders and the target is a pod, the last default imperative-eviction.k8s.io/evictor responder with a priority of 100 will evict the pod using the imperative Eviction API (pods/<name>/eviction subresource).

Eviction initiates an eviction process, which should ideally result in a graceful eviction of a .spec.target (e.g. termination of a pod).

The evictionrequest-controller observes intents of all EvictionRequests and transforms them into Evictions. It manages the Eviction lifecycle. Requesters are preserved in .status.requesters even after they have withdrawn their request. If all requesters withdraw their eviction intent for a common target, the eviction will be canceled. Once all EvictionRequest corresponding to this Eviction .spec.target have been removed, this Eviction object will eventually be garbage collected.

If the target is a pod, the .status.targetResponders is populated from Pod's .spec.evictionResponders.

Responders should observe and communicate through the .status to help with the eviction of the target when they see their state == Active in .status.targetResponders. ResponderStatus struct should then be periodically updated to indicate the progress or completion of the eviction process by each responder in .status.responders. If .status.responders[].heartbeatTime is not updated within the heartbeat deadline defined by the Eviction API (currently 20 minutes), the eviction is passed over to the next responder with a lower priority.

If there are no other responders and the target is a pod, the last default imperative-eviction.k8s.io/evictor responder with a priority of 100 will evict the pod using the imperative Eviction API (pods/<name>/eviction subresource).
