# Get all pods from current namespace scope, that has a name starting with "virt-" and
# IP that ends with ".84"

...# Get all persistant volume clames that are less then 20Gi, and output as json.
kubectl-sql -o json get pvc where "spec.resources.requests.storage < 20Gi"
...# Display non running pods by nodes for all namespaces.

"nodes.status.addresses.1.address = pods.status.hostIP and not pods.phase ~= 'Running'" -A
...# Filter replica sets with less ready-replicas then replicas"
kubectl-sql --all-namespaces get rs where "status.readyReplicas < status.replicas"
