Require certain labels

In many cases, you may require that at least a certain number of labels are assigned to each Pod from a select list of approved labels. This sample policy demonstrates the anyPattern option in a policy by requiring any of the two possible labels defined within. A pod must either have the label app.kubernetes.io/name or app.kubernetes.io/component defined. If you would rather validate that all Pods have multiple labels in an AND fashion rather than OR, check out the require_labels example.
