@@ -28,65 +28,9 @@ For `kubectl run` to satisfy infrastructure as code:
 
 * Tag the image with a version-specific tag and don't move that tag to a new version. For example, use `:v1234`, `v1.2.3`, `r03062016-1-4`, rather than `:latest` (For more information, see [Best Practices for Configuration](/docs/concepts/configuration/overview/#container-images)).
 * Capture the parameters in a checked-in script, or at least use `--record` to annotate the created objects with the command line for an image that is lightly parameterized.
-* Pin to a specific [generator](#generators) version, such as `kubectl run --generator=run-pod/v1`.
 * Check in the script for an image that is heavily parameterized.
 * Switch to configuration files checked into source control for features that are needed, but not expressible via `kubectl run` flags.

-If you explicitly set `--generator`, kubectl uses the generator you specified. If you invoke `kubectl run` and don't specify a generator, kubectl automatically selects which generator to use based on the other flags you set. The following table lists flags and the generators that are activated if you didn't specify one yourself:
-
-{{< table caption="kubectl run flags and the resource they imply" >}}
-| Flag                    | Generated Resource    |
-|-------------------------|-----------------------|
-| `--schedule=<schedule>` | CronJob               |
-| `--restart=Always`      | Deployment            |
-| `--restart=OnFailure`   | Job                   |
-| `--restart=Never`       | Pod                   |
-{{< /table >}}
-
-If you don't specify a generator, kubectl pays attention to other flags in the following order:
-
-1. `--schedule`
-1. `--restart`
-
 You can use the `--dry-run` flag to preview the object that would be sent to your cluster, without really submitting it.
