VMware Aria Automation 8.x Professional (2023) — Question 62

What is a function of the kubelet component?

Answer options

• A. Maintains network rules on nodes
• B. Exposes the Kubernetes API
• C. Watches for newly created Pods with no assigned node, and selects a node for them to run on
• D. Ensures that containers are running and healthy

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The kubelet is responsible for ensuring that containers are running and healthy, which is why option D is correct. Option A refers to network management, which is not the kubelet's role. Option B describes the Kubernetes API's exposure, typically handled by the API server. Option C pertains to scheduling, a function managed by the scheduler, not the kubelet.
