OpenShift Download Container Files Recipe

From the command line

1. Ensure you're logged in with oc
2. Find the relevant pod(s):

   $ oc get pods --namespace $NAMESPACE
   NAME                            READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
   mypod-7d57d6599f-tq7vt          1/1     Running   0          12m

3. Download files from the pod (requires the container has the tar binary installed; if there is more than one container, specify the container with -c $CONTAINER):

   $ oc cp --namespace $NAMESPACE $PODNAME:/logs/messages.log messages.log
   tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
