Describe the issue that occurred and describe the behavior you were expecting
I was taking the CKA exam, which started on March 25, 2026 at 7:00 AM Asia/Kolkata, and experienced a technical issue during the session.
The exam terminal became unresponsive and eventually I was logged out of the session. When I tried to log back in, I was only given the option to end the exam.
At that point, I still had approximately 10 minutes remaining and was unable to review or complete a few remaining questions due to this issue.
This was very frustrating, as I was not able to fully complete all of the questions. I felt well-prepared for the exam and had successfully completed multiple practice exams without any issues, so this disruption significantly will impact my performance. I just left few easy questions like adding resources, troubleshooting Control Plane etc
I would request you to kindly review my session logs and advise on the possibility of a retake or any appropriate resolution.
Exam date: March 25, 2026
Start time: 7:00 AM Asia/Kolkata
Thank you for your support.
