StorageClass Configuration
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.
🗓️ Free Task of the Week: one CKA task is unlocked free for everyone every week — no card, real cluster, auto-graded (2 tries/week). Create a free account and check whether this one is live now.
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
prepium.sh drops you into your own isolated Kubernetes cluster in the browser — no install, no credit card. 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). The canonical solution unlocks after you attempt it, so you learn the fast, exam-ready way to do it.
