When we try to retrieve any resource for a specific namespace that does not exist, the command executes successfully. However, it should show an error indicating that the namespace does not exist.
For example:
Suppose you execute kubectl get pods -n discuss, but the namespace discuss does not exist in the cluster. Instead of showing an error message like Namespace 'discuss' does not exist, the kubectl command executes successfully and returns the following, similar to a valid namespace with no resources:
No resources found in discuss namespace.
This behavior can cause confusion and might lead to debugging issues.
