Troubleshooting & Spiking SQL Data

You can deploy pod manifest/90-guacd-helper-pod.yaml which you can use to sql into the backend if needed.

$> kubectl cp guacamole.sql guacamole-helper:/home/d2iq --namespace guacamole
$> kubectl exec -it guacamole-helper --namespace guacamole -- /bin/bash
[d2iq@guacamole-helper /]$ cd ~
[d2iq@guacamole-helper ~]$ mysql -h $MYSQL_HOSTNAME -u $MYSQL_USER -p$MYSQL_PASSWORD $MYSQL_DATABASE < guacamole.sql
