# How to scale up/down a deployment in openshift?

* Log into os-master01 (prod or stg depending on what you want)

* Retrieve the list of projects if you don't know how it's named
```
oc projects
```

Find there the one of interest

* Get its deployments
```
oc -n <project name> get dc
```

This will return you the different deployments in the project.
Find the name of interest

* Scale the deployment up/down
```
oc -n <project name>  scale dc/<deployment name> --replicas=<number of pods desired>
```

If you do not want any running pods, simply use ``--replicas=0``
