Lighting Lab: Q7: Corrector not working correctly

Kubernetes
#1

Creating the skeleton of the pod by using imperative command like

kubectl create secret-1401 --image=busybox --dry-run=client -o yaml -- sleep 4800

It gives me the following yaml which I completed with the rest of the requirements of the exercise 7 of the Lighting Labs

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  labels:
    run: secret-1401
  name: secret-1401
  namespace: admin1401
spec:
  volumes:
  - name: foo
    secret:
      secretName: dotfile-secret
  containers:
  - args:
    - sleep
    - "4800"
    image: busybox
    name: secret-admin
    volumeMounts:
    - name: foo
      mountPath: "/etc/secret-volume"
      readOnly: true
  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
  restartPolicy: Always
status: {}

Then when I create the pod is running perfectly fine but the corrector of the exercise is not giving me the answer as valid and I need to understand why because I am meeting all the requirements

The right answer is

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  creationTimestamp: null
  labels:
    run: secret-1401
  name: secret-1401
  namespace: admin1401
spec:
  volumes:
  - name: secret-volume
    # secret volume
    secret:
      secretName: dotfile-secret
  containers:
  - command:
    - sleep
    args:
    - "4800"
    image: busybox
    name: secret-admin
    # volumes' mount path
    volumeMounts:
    - name: secret-volume
      readOnly: true
      mountPath: "/etc/secret-volume"

I believe the problem is that the imperative commands introduces the command (sleep) and arguments (4800) with the argument section but it is the outcome of the kubectl, plus the Pod is running completely fine.

Hello, @carlosrodlop
Technically both solutions are correct. In our labs, validation is looking for only specific one but don’t worry. In the official exam, you can use any of them.
