Hi Team,

Here is my cluster information

### Cluster information:

```auto
Kubernetes version: v1.28.5
Cloud being used: bare metal
Installation method: kubeadm
Host OS: Fedora
CNI and version: cilium 0.3.1
CRI and version: cri-o 1.27.2

```

I am trying to deploy a sample job in kubernetes cluster environment. After the job execution is completed. The respective container in the corresponding job’s pod is getting deleted after sometime.

```auto
Error - E0719 00:00:00.409361 3174 cpu_manager.go:394] "RemoveStaleState: removing container" podUID="pod-uid" containerName="pi"

```

job -

```auto
apiVersion: batch/v1
kind: Job
metadata:
  name: pi
spec:
  template:
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: pi
        image: perl:5.34.0
        command: ["perl", "-Mbignum=bpi", "-wle", "print bpi(2000)"]
      restartPolicy: Never
  backoffLimit: 4

```

Do we have any way to ensure that cpu\_manager does not removed the container after the job completion as once the container is removed i am unable to fetch the logs to analyze further and this is the error i see when i try to retrieve the container logs.

```auto
unable to retrieve container logs for docker://8efc123ae26dacebb8624eec7af8852f9205f42e2e2fcad586fd13eb4xxxxx

```

As per [kubernetes docs](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/job/#job-termination-and-cleanup) it mentions the container logs should be available after the execution completes by default.

I tried to set the “.spec.ttlSecondsAfterFinished” to ensure that the job and its corresponding pod and container logs are available for the number of seconds mentioned but that seems to have no effect.

Please suggest
