CKA study material · question 689 of 1000

Three nodes finish the scoring phase with identical scores. How does kube-scheduler choose between them?

  1. It picks one at random
  2. It picks the node with the fewest Pods
  3. It picks the node that appears first alphabetically
  4. It leaves the Pod pending until the tie is broken
Show the answer

Answer: A. It picks one at random

When several nodes tie on score the scheduler selects one at random, so no node is systematically favoured by tie-breaking.
