7

SYNOPSIS

11       kubectl set selector [OPTIONS]
12
13
14

DESCRIPTION

16       Set  the  selector on a resource. Note that the new selector will over‐
17       write the old selector if the resource had one prior to the  invocation
18       of 'set selector'.
19
20
21       A selector must begin with a letter or number, and may contain letters,
22       numbers, hyphens, dots, and  underscores,  up  to   63  characters.  If
23       --resource-version  is  specified,  then updates will use this resource
24       version, otherwise the existing resource-version will  be  used.  Note:
25       currently selectors can only be set on Service objects.
