Given the following Cluster Autoscaler configuration snippet:

--nodes=2:5:group-a
--nodes=1:3:group-b

What is the maximum number of nodes the autoscaler can add to the cluster?

A5 nodes total

BCannot determine from this configuration

C3 nodes total

D8 nodes total

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Identify max nodes per group
Group A max nodes = 5, Group B max nodes = 3.
Step 2: Sum max nodes for total max
Total max nodes = 5 + 3 = 8 nodes.
Final Answer:
8 nodes total -> Option D
Quick Check:
Sum max nodes = 8 [OK]

Quick Trick: Add max nodes from all groups for total max [OK]
