6 pods? Seems a bit much for a small app.

I thought we were only using 4 pods before?

I practiced this before, and I believe we can also edit the deployment YAML file to set the replicas to 6, but I’m not confident about the best approach.

Scaling to 6 pods should be straightforward, but I might need to double-check the deployment name to make sure I'm targeting the right one.

I remember a similar question where we had to scale a deployment, and I think we just specified the number of replicas in the command.

I think we need to use the `kubectl scale` command, but I'm not entirely sure about the exact syntax.

Easy peasy, I've done this before. I'll just make sure I have the deployment name right and then scale it up to 6 pods.

No problem, I've got this. I'll just run `kubectl get deployments` to find the name, then `kubectl scale deployment --replicas=6`.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. I'll need to use the `kubectl scale` command to update the deployment.

Hmm, this looks straightforward. I'll need to find the deployment and update the replica count to 6.
