  • Read the assigned qosClass

Start this lab

With the CLI installed and signed in, this command provisions a single node cluster on your Mac, applies the scenario setup and prints the task below.

goldenkube start cka-wkl-006

Task

The task text exactly as the CLI shows it. Solve it on the cluster, then run goldenkube submit.
