    • Jenkins - 2.346.3
      Kubernetes plugin - 3697.v771155683e38
      Kubernetes - 1.16
      AWS Elastic Container Registry

      I mean this code - https://github.com/jenkinsci/kubernetes-plugin/blob/e44cd177808637b163ab12bfb90c8520adfe1bc7/src/main/java/org/csanchez/jenkins/plugins/kubernetes/pod/retention/Reaper.java#L472

      As I see it, the Jenkins plugin for K8s terminates the job when it notices the "Back-off pulling image" message for the container status.

      Example of error message:

      Unable to pull Docker image "registry.net/project:version". Check if image tag name is spelled correctly.

      There are various reasons for this:

      • Invalid image tag or registry doesn't exist
      • Failed to authorize in "registry.net"
      • Rate limits on "registry.net" - (it can be the reason of my issue)
      • Network issues
      • etc

      With that in mind, I think the Jenkins plugin for Kubernetes should leverage exponential backoff retry for the image pull operation.
