Couple of questions:

  1. Will packages be already installed in exam such as for trivy, falco,apparmor etc? if not will they share the steps? also K8s docs dont have all data about above information
  2. If someone has bookmarks for CKS exam please please share, would be helpful
  3. Do we have partial markings in exam? or if half is right and half is wrong, the whole question gets zero points
  4. In mock1, in kube-bench, how do we do the chown of etcd, it had ps -ef but where will we do it ? /var/answers dont detail the kube-bench question, if in exam we have corrected 5 out of 10, will it count
  5. Are mock exams/lab enough to pass the test ?
    Please help

  1. It’s installed in the system
  2. the best approach is that you create your own bookmarks while you are studying, you will learn better everything
  3. there is no partial score. If the question is right you will get the score, if it’s wrong you will get zero points
  4. It you check the report from kube-bench, you also will get the command line to execute
  5. Yes, but it totally depends on your study of the previous lessons. The mock exams are similar to a real exam but remember that you will have only 2h for the questions (from 15 to 20 questions)

—> the answer from report was not clear to me thats why this question is raised, any suggestions

also, for third party services we dont have docs in K8s, how does that work? do we have access to their docs specially some of the services like falco ?

Jia:
yes also if someone shares their bookmark, can compare and make sure i havent missed anything, in CKA course someone from Mumshad’s team had shared the bookmarks to compare, why we dont have that level of help in CKS exam ?

Fernando Jordan Silva:
At the begging of the exam or even in the exam’s instructions you will find a full list of the external documentation sites that you can acces. They are the sites of the main tools that you can use (kube-bench, falco, trivy….)
If in the kube-bench report you can’t find the command line to use, you can find it downloading the CIS benchmark for kubernetes 1.16
