Kubernetes and Cloud Native Associate (KCNA) — Question 120

If a Pod was waiting for container images to download on the scheduled node, what state would it be in?

Answer options

• A. Failed
• B. Succeeded
• C. Unknown
• D. Pending

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct state for a Pod waiting for container images to download is 'Pending', as this indicates that the Pod has been accepted by the scheduler but is not yet running. The other states, such as 'Failed' and 'Succeeded', refer to completed Pods, while 'Unknown' indicates that the state cannot be determined.
