CKA study material · question 979 of 1000
A Pod is deleted with default settings. What signal does its main process receive first, and how long before SIGKILL?
Show the answer
Answer: D. SIGTERM, followed by SIGKILL after 30 seconds
The kubelet sends TERM to the main process in each container and only sends KILL once the grace period, 30 seconds by default, has expired.
