<p>I have a kubernetes cluster with 5 nodes. When I add a simple nginx pod it will be scheduled to one of the nodes but it will not start up. It will not even pull the image.</p>

<p>This is the nginx.yaml file:</p>

<pre><code>apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod 
metadata:
  name: nginx
spec:
  containers:
  - name: nginx
    image: nginx
    ports:
    - containerPort: 80
</code></pre>

<p>when I describe the pod there is one event: <code>Successfully assigned busybox to up02</code> When I log in to the up02 and check to see if there are any images pulled I see it didn't get pulled so I pulled it manually (I thought maybe it needs some kick start ;) )</p>

<p>The pod will allways stay in the Container creating state. It's not only with this pod, the problem is with any pod I try to add.</p>

<p>There are some pods running on the machine which is necessary for Kubernetes to operate:</p>

<pre><code>up@up01:~$ kubectl get pods --all-namespaces
