Deleting a controller / pod - should it stop the processes or what?

[davsclaus]

I started the camel-servlet quickstart which is a tomcat process. I then deleted the controller, but the pod was still there, and the process runs. And then I deleted the pod, and the process keeps running.

I guess we should have some validation in hawtio / fabric8 that checkes if any pods runs, and warns the user about that. And if they want to continue then they should either

• set the replicate to 0 first, and wait for all pods to terminate.
• .. or we do this automatic, though if there is many pods etc it may take a while. So wonder if its best to require that the end user sets the replicate to zero and no pods runs before they are allowed to delete them?
