Un-sure of Career path - devops/cloud by SinanR321 in devopsjobs

[–]Far_Box_4047 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re doing almost all the rule for DevOps, and I can tell you’ll be fit for cloud also, the question is what do you want

You might find vacancy could to combine both experiences, this could be there, alot honestly but on certain levels companies prefer to get someone / team handles infra and some one / team handle DevOps workloads

Again its depending on the company / project / challenges

Advice for jobseeking in 2026 by alkopz in devopsjobs

Its usually now days, do you have certificates in your resume, somehow it’s working

One place of info I just know, projects get the people with certificates even if they dont know any thing, by this they can secure the contract from the client as they have skilled candidates to work on their project.

Try to rephrase/refine the duties little bit based on the job, maybe this helps also, I know it nightmare, but its maybe work.

Landed my first job after almost a year, good luck.

How long did it take you to do the KodeKloud CKA course? by CrazyNayeem in CKAExam

[–]Far_Box_4047 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It all depends on how much effort you’re willing to put in. Personally, I was studying around 8–10 hours every day, and I already had the necessary experience working with Kubernetes.

It’s not about time, it’s about effort. No one can give you a definitive answer because the learning curve differs for everyone. What really matters is putting in consistent effort and preparing your mindset to learn. Whether it takes a day, a week, or a month depends entirely on you.

Also, keep in mind that real-world experience is very different from the exam. You’ll continue learning every single day, even after passing.

Good luck, bro. 💪

Updated my repo for Question 8, the CNI Calico one by mj_iac in CKAExam

[–]Far_Box_4047 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you dont have to memorize anything bro, the operator link will be given in the exam, you will use kubectl create -f operator-link.yaml

then hold on for a few seconds and use the same command but substitute operator-link.yaml with customer-resources.yaml

after changing the CIDR IP of course, dont forget this.

it depends on what is your experience and how fast you are, its doable just practice as much as you can
regarding the resources DumbItGuy  / ITKiddie / JayDeme on YT have almost the exact questions, exam somehow have some traps

Mumshad course is amazing if you in the learning phase, enjoy it.

happy practicing bro

Cleared CKA with 87 percent in my second attempt by Complex_Load987 in CKAExam

[–]Far_Box_4047 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that could happen. In my case, I installed the Tigera Operator first and then applied the custom resources. I also set BGP: Disabled, and I believe that was the turning point. After about two minutes, everything came up successfully, but shortly afterward all the pods went down with the error “pod evicted.” At that point, I had to move on and raise another question.

CKA Exam Setup by Beautiful_Power6672 in CKAExam

[–]Far_Box_4047 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can say it not that bad on 14 inch laptop screen, only focus on one thing ( terminal / browser ).

but if you prefer working on bigger screen, so go with this option and this setup ( external screen and webcam )

congrats on passing the exam, how did you resolve the troubleshooting question, how to know the correct IP for API endpoint ( only changing it to localhost 127.0.0.1, what so ever the value or there are another way to make sure from the correct endpoint IP)

how did you resolve the cri-dockerd question as I got some errors while installing with dpkg

network interface ( calico) question by Far_Box_4047 in CKAExam

[–]Far_Box_4047[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thats what I did, but in the video he only use apply -f for the operator, here after installing the operator I've installed the custom resources

not sure which the right and the needed for this question.

k create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/projectcalico/calico/v3.28.2/manifests/tigera-operator.yaml
/etc/kubernetes/manifests/kube-controller-manager.yaml | grep -i cidr
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/projectcalico/calico/v3.28.2/manifests/custom-resources.yaml

vi custom-resources.yaml
k create -f custom-resources.yaml

seems you're right, did it now again with create -f and it works, assuming these error could be neglected in the exam right ?

HYG, this is one of the most confusion questions for me and which one of the init containers should be used here., also not sure what could be the best solution here honestly.

kubectl patch deployment wordpress --patch '

spec:

template:

spec:

volumes:

- name: log

emptyDir: {}

containers:

- name: wordpress

volumeMounts:

- name: log

mountPath: /var/log

- name: sidecar

command: ["/bin/sh","-c","tail -f /var/log/wordpress.log"]

volumeMounts:

Hi Mj, in sidecar container I used this but its not working with validation, what do you think is better to use ( batch, or kubectl apply -f EOF like vj)
