Docs: stop vs pause #14773
Comments
Stop kills the process, so that it has to be started up again. Pause freezes the process, so that it can be resumed later. |
hey, I would like to work on this issue :) |
/assign |
Please let me know if any feedback, would love to learn or implement such suggestions. |
Note that if/when doing the "stop" command, it might also halt a virtual machine (if used) The comments above applied to the "docker" driver, and doesn't affect the VM (if any) e.g. the Docker Desktop VM is started and stopped, independent from minikube Currently there is no way to suspend and resume VM, but that feature* might arrive later. * here is the feature implemented for lima, which also uses a qemu driver: The main issue is that the network connections get broken, when suspended. It is the same feature as when hitting the "Pause" button in the VirtualBox GUI. |
So essentially when you mention "minikube stop", the underlying docker container that minikube runs on is halted. |
That is correct, or stopped (as in
Right, in this scenario the kubernetes cluster containers' processes are all frozen. But the main process runs. Things are a little different, when running a virtual machine instead of a container. Then it is halted with "stop", for real. When the machine is started up again later, the whole VM needs to be booted again. And then processes are started. For the platforms running Docker Desktop, that VM is handled with separate controls - minikube does not start/stop it. This is similar to starting the machine with --no-kubernetes, when only the Linux system processes runs - no control plane |
Same comment applies to Podman Desktop, there the VM is controlled using the electron GUI or |
@Aryan-Deshpande you said you want to work on the issue. I think it would be great if you could extend a docs a bit, so that the difference is easier to understand. |
@guettli sure that sounds good. Let me come back with more resources. |

What Happened?
I see that minikube containers in minikube consume ressources, so that my laptop fan makes noise.
At the moment I don't need minikube.
I look at
I have no clue what the difference between both commands.
It would be great, if the docs would explain the difference between both commands.
