CKA study material · question 809 of 1000
A PersistentVolumeClaim has been deleted but sits in Terminating with the finalizer kubernetes.io/pvc-protection. What is holding it?
Show the answer
Answer: B. A Pod is still using the claim
The pvc-protection and pv-protection finalizers keep a claim or volume in Terminating while it is in use, so storage is never removed from under a running Pod.
