Есть такой под:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: myapp
  labels:
    name: myapp
spec:
  containers:
  - name: myapp
    image: linuxcontainers/debian-slim
    resources:
      limits:
        memory: "128Mi"
        cpu: "100m"
      requests:
        memory: "128Mi"
        cpu: "100m"
    volumeMounts:
      - name: localtime
        mountPath: /etc/localtime
  volumes:
    - name: localtime
      hostPath:
        path: /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Taipei
  restartPolicy: Always
После применения 
kubeclt apply -f pod.yml в 
kubectl describe myapp происходит так:
  Normal   Created    26m (x4 over 27m)      kubelet            Created container myapp
  Normal   Started    26m (x4 over 27m)      kubelet            Started container myapp
  Normal   Pulling    25m (x5 over 27m)      kubelet            Pulling image "jitesoft/alpine"
  Normal   Pulled     25m                    kubelet            Successfully pulled image "jitesoft/alpine" in 3.701s

Но
если использовать другой образ, например, spec.containers.image:{httpd,nginx} - поды работают корректно (Running).
