  1. Which component must be deployed in a cluster before `kubectl top nodes` works?

    Answer: Metrics Server

    The Metrics Server must be installed to aggregate resource usage data and enable `kubectl top` commands.

  2. What command shows CPU and memory usage for all pods in the 'production' namespace?

    Answer: kubectl top pods -n production

    `kubectl top pods -n ` displays real-time CPU and memory usage for pods in that namespace.

  3. Which flag with `kubectl top pods` breaks down usage per container instead of per pod?

    Answer: --containers

    The `--containers` flag shows per-container CPU and memory usage within each listed pod.

  4. Which Kubernetes object sets default resource limits and requests for containers within a namespace?

    Answer: LimitRange

    A LimitRange object defines default, min, and max resource limits and requests for containers in a namespace.

  5. What does a ResourceQuota object restrict in a Kubernetes namespace?

    Answer: Total resource consumption and object count

    ResourceQuota limits the total compute resources consumed and the number of Kubernetes objects that can exist in a namespace.

  6. Which command displays resource usage (CPU/memory) broken down by each node in the cluster?

    Answer: kubectl top nodes

    `kubectl top nodes` shows current CPU and memory usage for every node in the cluster.
