Kubernetes and Cloud Native Associate (KCNA) — Question 51

How does dynamic storage provisioning work?

Answer options

• A. A user requests dynamically provisioned storage by including an existing storage class in their PersistentVolumeClaim.
• B. An administrator creates a storage class and includes it in their pod YAML definition file without creating a PersistentVolumeClaim.
• C. A pod requests dynamically provisioned storage by including a storage class and the pod name in their PersistentVolumeClaim.
• D. An administrator creates a PersistentVolume and includes the name of the PersistentVolume in their pod YAML definition file.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, A, accurately describes that a user must include an existing storage class in their PersistentVolumeClaim to request dynamically provisioned storage. Options B and D are incorrect because they do not involve the necessary PersistentVolumeClaim for dynamic provisioning. Option C incorrectly states that a pod requests storage directly, which is not how dynamic provisioning works.
