Multi-Node K8s Cluster Lab (CKA/CKS)

What you get

• Multi-node cluster practice tasks with success checks
• Troubleshooting tickets covering workload, networking and storage issues
• Security hardening tasks: RBAC, NetworkPolicy, least privilege patterns
• Verification checklist after every fix (prove it’s solved)
• Reset guidance and speed drills to improve exam performance

Lab scenarios

• Scheduling failures: taints/tolerations, resources, affinity/anti-affinity
• Ingress or Service unreachable: endpoints, selectors, ports, DNS checks
• NetworkPolicy blocks traffic: confirm allowed flows with tests
• PVC/PV issues: binding, storageClass mismatch, mount errors
• RBAC denies actions: fix roles/rolebindings safely and minimally
• Observability drill: choose signals and set actionable alerts

How it works

Access & environment

• Remote terminal or browser console depending on your setup
• Repeatable tasks with reset guidance
• Command templates and checklists for fast verification
• Ideal companion for CKA/CKS exam bank review

Prerequisites

• Linux terminal basics
• Basic Kubernetes concepts helpful
• Willingness to practice repeatedly for speed

Outcomes

• Faster, more reliable Kubernetes troubleshooting workflow
• Improved hands-on exam performance (CKA/CKS style)
• Security-aware habits for access control and network segmentation
• Confidence handling real cluster incidents
