Open book (kubernetes.io). Cost: $395 (includes retake). Study companion: Pair with Citadel's free Kubernetes courses. Sample Tasks Task 1 (Cluster Architecture): Back up the etcd cluster to `/opt/etcd-backup.db`. The etcd server is running on the control plane node with certificates at `/etc/kubernetes/pki/etcd/`. Solution: ETCDCTL_API=3 etcdctl snapshot save /opt/etcd-backup.db \ --endpoints=https://127.0.0.1:2379 \ --cacert=/etc/kubernetes/pki/etcd/ca.crt \ --cert=/etc/kubernetes/pki/etcd/server.crt \ --key=/etc/kubernetes/pki/etcd/server.key Task 2 (Workloads): Create a Deployment named `web-app` in namespace `production` with 3 replicas running `nginx:1.25`. Set resource requests to 100m CPU and 128Mi memory. Solution: kubectl create deployment web-app -n production --image=nginx:1.25 --replicas=3 --dry-run=client -o yaml > web-app.yaml # Edit to add resources, then apply kubectl apply -f web-app.yaml Task 3 (Networking): Create a NetworkPolicy in namespace `secure` that allows ingress traffic to pods labeled `app=api` only from pods labeled `role=frontend` on port 8080. Solution: apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1 kind: NetworkPolicy metadata: name: api-allow-frontend namespace: secure spec: podSelector: matchLabels: app: api ingress: - from: - podSelector: matchLabels: role: frontend ports: - port: 8080 Task 4 (Storage): Create a PersistentVolumeClaim named `data-pvc` requesting 5Gi of storage with `ReadWriteOnce` access mode using the `standard` StorageClass. Mount it to a pod at `/data`. Solution: apiVersion: v1 kind: PersistentVolumeClaim metadata: name: data-pvc spec: accessModes: [ReadWriteOnce] resources: requests: storage: 5Gi storageClassName: standard Task 5 (Troubleshooting): A pod named `broken-app` in namespace `debug` is in CrashLoopBackOff. Diagnose the issue and fix it. Approach: kubectl describe pod broken-app -n debug # Check events kubectl logs broken-app -n debug # Check app logs kubectl logs broken-app -n debug -p # Previous container logs # Common fixes: wrong image tag, missing ConfigMap/Secret, command typo, port mismatch
