You can configure a sleep execution in a preStop handler to avoid requests being routed to a pod that has already begun shutting down.
 | 
			
		||||
This sleep should be long enough for new requests to stop being routed to the pod and its duration will vary from deployment to deployment.
 | 
			
		||||
The preStop handler can be configured by using the PodSpec in the pod's configuration file as follows:

If you're using Kubernetes 1.32 or up, the preStop handler can be configured by using the PodSpec in the pod's configuration file as follows:

NOTE: The container needs to have a shell for this to work.

Once the pre-stop hook has completed, SIGTERM will be sent to the container and xref:reference:web/graceful-shutdown.adoc[graceful shutdown] will begin, allowing any remaining in-flight requests to complete.

 |

NOTE: When Kubernetes sends a SIGTERM signal to the pod, it waits for a specified time called the termination grace period (the default for which is 30 seconds).
