<p>I am running a pod that has three containers. need to update the image of one of the container without doing a rolling upgrade.</p>

<p>How do I get the container image updated without touching/restarting the other two containers?</p>

<p>If you are asking yourself this question, maybe you should reconsider some things.</p>

<p>As stated in the others comment/answers, a pod once created is one unit whatever is inside of it.</p>

<p>If you ever needs to scale some part of the pod and not the rest or do updates of just a part and don't want to restart the rest (a caching system for example), you should look to take out the container from you deployment and create another independent one.</p>
