You are troubleshooting an application running on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). You need to see a list of all currently running pods in the default namespace.

Which command should you use?

Answer options:

kubectl get pods

gcloud container pods list

kubectl describe cluster

gcloud compute pods list

How to approach this question

Remember that once a GKE cluster is running, you use standard Kubernetes commands to interact with its resources.

Full Answer

A.kubectl get pods✓ Correct

kubectl get pods

To view the inventory of running resources inside a Kubernetes cluster (like pods, services, deployments), you use the `kubectl` command-line tool. The command `kubectl get pods` lists all pods in the current active namespace.

Common mistakes

Trying to use `gcloud` to list Kubernetes-specific resources.
