The claim waits for storage
Stateful Pods remain Pending with unbound persistent-volume claims.
INITIAL ALERT
Stateful Pods remain Pending with unbound persistent-volume claims.
You are primary on-call. Establish the failure domain, protect healthy capacity, and choose the safest next action.
Nodes have capacity and the scheduler is otherwise healthy.
The decisive evidence and solution remain locked inside the simulation.WHAT THIS TESTS
Production judgment across Kubernetes · EBS CSI.
Kubernetes status names the stage where work stopped. Reading scheduler events, controller state, and object relationships beats debugging an application that never started.
- 01Use Kubernetes state to choose the next check
- 02Trace workload, Service, and storage relationships
- 03Recover safely under rollout constraints
SIMULATION STRUCTURE
Four evidence layers. No answer shown here.
The full exercise unlocks each layer as you commit to decisions.
Alert
Confirm the reported symptom and customer impact.
Baseline
Compare the failing path with a known-good condition.
Finding
Identify the evidence that separates plausible causes.
Change
Choose a controlled recovery and a durable prevention step.
