Kubernetes - Monitoring and Logging
Given the output below from kubectl top nodes, what does it indicate? 
NAME           CPU(cores)   MEMORY(bytes)
node-1         250m        512Mi
node-2         900m        1Gi
node-3         100m        256Mi
Anode-3 has the highest CPU usage.
Bnode-1 is using the most memory.
CAll nodes have equal resource usage.
Dnode-2 is under heavy CPU and memory load compared to others.
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Analyze CPU and memory usage per node

    node-2 shows 900m CPU and 1Gi memory, which is higher than node-1 and node-3.

  2. Step 2: Compare usage values

    node-3 has lowest CPU (100m), node-1 has moderate CPU (250m), node-2 is highest in both CPU and memory.

  3. Final Answer:

    node-2 is under heavy CPU and memory load compared to others. -> Option D

  4. Quick Check:

    Highest CPU and memory = node-2 [OK]
Quick Trick: Highest CPU and memory usage means heavy load [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Mistaking 100m as highest CPU
  • Assuming equal resource usage
  • Confusing memory units
