Kubernetes - Resource Management

In a Kubernetes pod spec, you set:

resources:
  requests:
    cpu: "300m"
  limits:
    cpu: "200m"

What issue will this cause?

AThe pod will be scheduled with 200m CPU guaranteed.

BThe CPU request is higher than the CPU limit, which is invalid.

CThe pod can use up to 300m CPU without restrictions.

DThis configuration is valid and will work as expected.

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand CPU requests and limits
CPU requests specify the guaranteed CPU, while limits specify the maximum CPU allowed.
Step 2: Analyze the given values
The request is 300m, but the limit is 200m, which means the guaranteed CPU is higher than the maximum allowed.
Final Answer:
The CPU request cannot be higher than the CPU limit. -> Option B
Quick Check:
Request ≤ Limit? No -> [OK]

Quick Trick: CPU request must never exceed CPU limit [OK]
