Task Summary
* SSH into the correct node: cka000049
* Find the highest existing user-defined PriorityClass
* Create a new PriorityClass high-priority with a value one less
* Patch Deployment busybox-logger (in namespace priority) to use this new PriorityClass Step-by-Step Solution
1## SSH into the correct node

ssh cka000049
## Skipping this = zero score
2## Find the highest existing user-defined PriorityClass
Run:
bash
CopyEdit
kubectl get priorityclasses.scheduling.k8s.io
Example output:
vbnet
CopyEdit
NAME VALUE GLOBALDEFAULT AGE
default-low 1000 false 10d
mid-tier 2000 false 7d
critical-pods 1000000 true 30d
Exclude system-defined classes like system-* and the default global one (e.g., critical-pods).
Let's assume the highest user-defined value is 2000.
So your new class should be:
* Value = 1999
3## Create the high-priority PriorityClass
Create a file called high-priority.yaml:
cat <<EOF > high-priority.yaml
apiVersion: scheduling.k8s.io/v1
kind: PriorityClass
metadata:
name: high-priority
value: 1999
globalDefault: false
description: "High priority class for user workloads"
EOF
Apply it:
kubectl apply -f high-priority.yaml
4## Patch the busybox-logger deployment
Now patch the existing Deployment in the priority namespace:
kubectl patch deployment busybox-logger -n priority \
--type='merge' \
-p '{"spec": {"template": {"spec": {"priorityClassName": "high-priority"}}}}'
5## Verify your work
Confirm the patch was applied:
kubectl get deployment busybox-logger -n priority -o jsonpath='{.spec.template.spec.priorityClassName}'
# You should see:
high-priority
Also, confirm the class exists:
kubectl get priorityclass high-priority

ssh cka000049

# Patch the deployment
kubectl patch deployment busybox-logger -n priority \

-p '{"spec": {"template": {"spec": {"priorityClassName": "high-priority"}}}}'
# Verify
kubectl get deployment busybox-logger -n priority -o jsonpath='{.spec.template.spec.priorityClassName}' kubectl get priorityclass high-priority
