The task
Create a new StorageClass named local-storage with the provisioner rancher.io/local-path. Set volumeBindingMode to WaitForFirstConsumer. Do not make it the default SC.
Patch the StorageClass to make it the default StorageClass.
Ensure local-storage is the only default class.
Do not modify any existing Deployments or PersistentVolumeClaims.
What this tests
Configure persistent volumes, claims, storage classes, and volume access modes. On the CKA exam, Storage tasks are graded purely on what you build in the cluster - not multiple choice - so the only way to get faster is to do them on a real cluster against a clock.
Practice it for real
The public description lets you study the task before signing up. Full access includes this live lab; the selected Task of the Week is free with an account. You solve the task in a real terminal, hit validate, and a programmatic checker scores exactly what you got right and wrong (with partial credit). You can open the solution while practising, then retry and use the failed checks to improve your score.
